'Unprecedented' measles outbreak in Brisbane triggers warning | Sky News AustraliaQueensland doctors say there’s an “unprecedented” outbreak of measles in Brisbane, with more than 1000 people potentially affected.\n\nEight cases of measles have been detected in the past few weeks and more than 1000 people could have been exposed to the outbreak with doctors concerned that number could rise. \n\nDoctors said this is highly unusual as south east Queensland normally only records up to four measles cases each year. \n\nThe outbreak has been traced to a child who was infectious during a China Airlines flight from Auckland to Brisbane in early October. \n When I was a kid it was a badge of honour to get the measles, you got time off school and lay around eating icecream. Is it really unprecedented or is this a vaccine push. This has been done before and lo and behold guess what names were behind it.... cough, Clintons. Climate change I’m sure
