There has been an upsurge in cases of measles in Pakistan, particularly Karachi and Rawalpindi.
Travellers going to Pakistan should make sure they are immune to measles, either through natural immunity or vaccination.
It is now recommended that two doses of the MMR vaccine are given to ensure a high level of immunity.
