The number of Victorians who have caught measles after coming into contact with two infected men flying into Melbourne’s Tullamarine Airport continues to grow.

Another baby who was too young to be vaccinated has been confirmed as one of the new victims.

Young babies are especially vulnerable to measles, as they have to wait until they turn one to get their first vaccination.

The Victorian Department of Health has now confirmed 10 cases of the highly infectious disease. There are eight adults, seven of whom were taken to hospital, and two infants.

The majority of the infections are linked to a man who flew from Kuala Lumpur to Melbourne on AirAsia flight D7214 on Wednesday, March 7, landing about 9.30am.
