Measles advice issued after child's death from virus

People on the Isle of Man have been urged people look out for symptoms of measles following the death of a child in Liverpool.
The public health directorate said it had not been notified of any measles cases locally but was working with Manx Care to prepare for any potential outbreak.
Urging people to be vigilant of the symptoms, the directorate warned it was a "serious disease" that could "result in life-changing complications".
Ensuring vaccines were up to date was the "best way to protect yourself", a spokesman said.
The child died at Liverpool's Alder Hey Children's Hospital, where 17 children have been treated for the virus since June.
Starting out with cold-like symptoms including a high temperature, runny or blocked nose, sneezing, coughing, and sore or watery eyes, measles progresses to a non-itchy, red-brown rash up to five days later, sometimes with white spots in the mouth.
'Lifelong protection'
Anyone who suspects they or a family member has the virus should contact their GP during working hours or the Manx Emergency Doctor Service.
People most at risk of serious harm from the illness include babies and small children, pregnant women and people with weakened immunity, the directorate said.
The highly contagious virus is known to spread quickly within certain settings including nurseries, schools and healthcare settings if those attending have not had two doses of the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine.
Those unsure of their own vaccination status, or that of a family member, have been advised to check their Personal Child Health Record, known as a Red Book, via the online Patient Access system or by contacting their GP surgery.
A spokesman for Public Health Isle of Man said the vaccine was "safe, effective and free", and two doses offered "lifelong protection".
