On 25 October 2020, it was proposed that this article be moved to 2019–20 New Zealand measles outbreak. The result of the discussion was not moved.

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:2019–2020 vaping lung illness outbreak which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — RMCD bot 04:21, 25 October 2020 (UTC) reply
