    Another 18 New Zealand nurses are being sent to Samoa


    That means 30 will help tackle the serious measles outbreak over the next four weeks.

    A State of Emergency was declared on Friday, as the numbers infected continues to rise - and hospitals are under strain.

    Kiwi vaccination nurses will support an immunisation programme for those most at risk.

    The medical assistance team will provide treatment and supplies in a hospital on Upolu.
