Dear Neighbor,<\/span><\/p>\n

As you may have already seen from <\/span>yesterday’s announcement<\/span><\/a> by state and local health officials, there has been a confirmed case of measles in Ingham County \u2014 the first in the community since 1994.<\/span><\/p>\n

Find additional information and resources below to help you and your loved ones stay safe, including potential exposure sites, measles symptoms, and where to get vaccinated.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Measles is a highly contagious disease that spreads via direct person-to-person contact and through the air. It\u2019s also preventable through vaccination. As shared by the Michigan Dept. of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) and Ingham County Health Dept. (ICHD), those who are 1-years of age and older who have not yet received the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine are strongly encouraged to do so as quickly as possible in order to protect themselves and others.<\/span><\/p>\n
