Abstract	"In Germany there have been intense discussions about measles vaccination and, as a consequence, the 'Law for the Protection against Measles and for Strengthening Vaccination Prevention (Measles Protection Act)' was passed. The Measles Protection Act has now been in force since 1 March 2020 and has far-reaching consequences for day-care centres for two reasons. First, children and staff in day-care centres must prove that they have been vaccinated against measles before being admitted to the centre. Second, day-care facilities are obliged to notify the local health authority if sufficient proof of measles vaccination is not provided for a child in the day-care facility. This shift in responsibility for the control of the vaccination status poses a great threat to the relationship of trust between parents and educational staff." (INCHER/text adopted).
