There are now multi-country health advice notices for all travellers either transiting or staying in the North Rhineland/Westfalia area of Germany.
All tourists should seek medical advice regarding vaccination against measles/rubella.
Women especially are at risk if in the early stages of pregnancy as catching or being close to those with measles/rubella can cause complications with the unborn child.
If you are at all unsure about your immunisation status, please see your doctor before travelling to Germany.
