A private school teacher from Victoria has taken to Facebook to find a child who is infected with the measles to pass them on to her own two children.

The mother-of-two, whose name had not been released, posted on Australia: Childcare for Unvaccinated Children, a private Facebook group, over the weekend, according to The Herald Sun.

‘With the recent measles outbreak near Dandenong, please contact/message me if your children get measles and you are happy to share,’ a fellow anti-vaxxer said.

‘Same plz!’ the private school teacher responded.

Her comments come after health officials warned of a measles outbreak in Melbourne’s south-east and western Sydney.

Deputy Chief Health Officer Dr Brett Sutton told the Herald Sun he could not ‘fathom why any parent would put their child at such a risk’.

‘Measles still kills hundreds of thousands of children globally each year,’ he said.

‘And around one in a thousand in Australia will die if infected.’  

Measles symptoms can begin with a runny nose, red eyes and cough.

A rash and fever develop 3-7 days after the first symptoms.
