There's been a confirmed case of measles in Galway.

A person traveled from another European country into Dublin on July 18th - while being infectious.

They then traveled to Galway.

The HSE says the airline involved has been contacted and all passengers on the flight have been notified.

The case is unrelated to the recent outbreak where 34 cases were confirmed between April and July.

People who haven't been fully vaccinated with two doses of MMR are at risk.

Also babies under the age of 12 months and those with a weakened immune system.
