Measles Spreads in Wisconsin | Green Bay News

Measles is surging in Wisconsin, with 15 confirmed and 6 probable cases in Iowa and Lafayette counties — a sharp spike from just two cases earlier this month. Health officials fear silent spread since many infected people aren’t getting tested or seeking care, and the virus can linger in air for hours. Symptoms include fever, cough, and a signature rash. Experts urge anyone exposed to monitor for signs and stay home if sick. The best protection? Two MMR vaccine doses — 97% effective. Check your status via Wisconsin’s Immunization Registry or your doctor, and get vaccinated at clinics or pharmacies — call 211 for help finding one.
