Abstract
Aim: The second dose of measles vaccination has been performed since 1998 in Turkey. As a result of measles vaccination campaign in schools (MVCS) between September to October 2003, the children vaccinated once or twice before campaign would be vaccinated once more. We planned to investigate the immunity provided by campaign and the influence of vaccination on the hematological parameters.
