Measles Outbreak in Atlanta Daycare | Atlanta News

Measles is spreading fast in metro Atlanta, tied to a daycare with four new confirmed cases — all linked to an earlier patient and mostly unvaccinated kids. Health officials are urgently tracing contacts as measles spreads through the air and lingers for hours. Symptoms appear 7–14 days after exposure: fever, cough, runny nose, watery eyes, then a rash starting on the head. The MMR vaccine prevents it — first dose at 12–15 months, second at 4–6 years. If you or your child shows symptoms, call your doctor before heading in to avoid spreading it. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
