Additional areas of potential vulnerability are being investigated. People who have been in the above mentioned areas are advised to check for measles. If they have not had measles in the past and have not yet received the measles vaccine, they are at risk of contracting measles if exposed.

Exposed individuals who are symptom-free for more than 21 days are not at risk.

“Measles is spread through the air and through direct contact before you know you have it,” said Los Angeles County Health Officer Dr. Muntu Davis. Initially, fever, cough, red, sore eyes, followed by a rash can cause severe complications in young children and vulnerable adults.”
