An 11-month-old baby who was not vaccinated against measles has died from complications related to the disease, according to the Health Ministry. The infant, who had no underlying health conditions, was transferred from a medical center in Tiberias to a hospital in Haifa and placed on life support before passing away. This is the twelfth reported death in Israel since the measles outbreak began in May, with most victims being healthy, unvaccinated children. Health officials are urging the public to seek prompt medical attention if symptoms develop or if there is a suspected exposure to measles.
