Measles Outbreak

Measles is highly contagious, and the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones is by being immunized with two doses of the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine, a highly effective and safe vaccine. Individuals and families travelling to areas where these outbreaks are occurring should make sure that their MMR vaccination is up-to-date. To learn more about where these outbreaks are occurring in the United States, visit: https://www.cdc.gov/measles/data-research/index.html

Families who are planning to travel outside the U.S. should ensure that their family members, especially children, are up-to-date on their routine U.S. vaccines, including the MMR vaccine. Please see your healthcare provider if you have questions about your vaccination status.
