Midwives brace for more measles queries

Midwives in Auckland are expecting another flurry of queries about measles after two women lost their unborn babies when they contracted the illness. Health authorities confirmed yesterday that five pregnant women had been hospitalised with measles and there had been two foetal deaths. The College of Midwives Auckland co-chair, Ady Priday, told RNZ reporter Sarah Robson that she and other midwives have been fielding plenty of questions about measles over the last couple of months.
