Ezatullah Safi, statistical officer at the Kunduz Immunisation Hospital, told Pajhwok Afghan News that 260 people had contracted measles in the province this year, most of them children.
He recalled that the number of measles-infected people was 20 in 2021, but it had increased several times this year.
"The main reason behind the rising measles cases is recent fighting in the country, because vaccines did not reach all . . .
