Measles Alert: Maryland Exposure Warning | Baltimore News

Five new measles cases in Maryland linked to recent travel to an outbreak zone—health officials warn anyone in Carroll Hospital’s ER waiting room July 13th between 2 PM and 5 PM may have been exposed. With nine cases this year (up from three last year), measles is making a comeback, especially with travel. If you’re unsure if you’re vaccinated or had measles before, contact your local health department. Watch for fever over 101, cough, runny nose, red watery eyes—and a rash that starts on the face. Symptoms can appear up to 21 days after exposure. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
