The RVC repeatedly commends a high quality of ASU, including comprehensive analysis and detailed laborato- ry information provided. The RVC agrees with the NVC conclusion that measles endemic transmission was re-established in 2017, and is looking forward to learn about activities and steps taken to address measles immunity challenges. ©WHO 2019 Source:European Regional Verification Commission for Measles and Rubella Elimination (RVC) meeting report: www.euro.who.int/7thrvc
