The Osmaninagar Upazila Health Complex in Sylhet has not yet opened a dedicated measles corner due to the absence of required administrative approval. Although hospitals were instructed to set up separate corners for measles cases, the facility remains pending approval. Since late March, only four suspected measles patients have been identified in the upazila, with two samples sent to the National Polio and Measles-Rubella Laboratory in Dhaka and two still under testing. No confirmed measles cases or related deaths have been reported so far.
Health officials stated that preventive measures have been strengthened for suspected patients, and vaccination activities have been expanded. A measles vaccination campaign is scheduled for April 20, with parents advised to remain alert. Sample collection from symptomatic patients continues across the upazila. Doctors emphasized that measles is highly contagious and that infected or symptomatic children should be isolated to prevent spread.
Separately, a One Stop Service Center for senior citizens has been launched at the same health complex to provide faster and prioritized medical services, inaugurated on January 15 by the Sylhet Civil Surgeon.
