Abstract
In late December 2001 a cluster of confirmed measles cases was reported among preschool children in south London, the start of the largest outbreak since the mid-1990s. This paper describes the outbreak, and examines the characteristics of the children affected, with particular reference to immunisation history and socioeconomic status.Keywords
