Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: In 2022, we established a residual sample serosurveillance program in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. During September 2022-April 2024, we found low measles antibody seroprevalence in children in the city's western region, where a measles outbreak began in May 2024. Serosurveillance could be a useful tool for outbreak prediction and prevention.
