64 new measles cases have been reported in the Swansea area in the last week, taking the outbreak to 316 with 42 hospitalised. In total, 111 secondary and primary schools and nurseries have now been affected.
Public Health Wales says it is only a matter of time before a child is left with serious and permanent complications or even dies.
