DhakaMeasles has killed 1,147 people in Bangladesh since March.
More than 202,000 have been infected, in a country that was a vaccination success story in 2024.
First-dose coverage fell to 90% and second-dose to 86% in 2025, below the 95% WHO says prevents outbreaks.
A separate June campaign targeted 4 million more children than the emergency measles drive, which the government said covered all.
Another campaign launched in late September targets 3.4 million children the government says were missed.
