Health Ministry alerts passengers on El Al flight that fellow flier had measles
The Health Ministry announces that one of the passengers on an El Al flight last Thursday from Kiev to Tel Aviv had measles.
The ministry urges all fellow passengers to immediately see a doctor if they develop a fever or a rash.
Since the beginning of the year over 620 Israelis have fallen ill with measles, according to Health Ministry figures, up from 34 a year before, an almost 2,000 percent rise.
