The HSE have confirmed that the number of confirmed measles cases in Dublin has risen to 11.

In a statement the Health Service Executive said five more cases have been confirmed in recent days.

They also say they are growing concerned for a number of children who attended Dublin’s Temple Street Hospital at the end of July.

Parents are being reminded to keep an eye on their child’s symptoms as the illness usually presents with high fever, coughing, runny nose and a red rash.
