MEASLES INFORMATION

Measles symptoms include fever, dry cough, runny nose, sore throat and red, watery eyes.  Three to five days after symptoms begin, the Center for Disease Control & Prevention says a rash breaks out which appears as flat red spots on the face at the hairline and spreads downward to the neck, trunk, arms, legs and feet.  Small raised bumps may also appear on top of the flat red spots. 

If you have questions or concerns, please CALL prior to coming into the Health & Wellness Center or visit your primary care physician.
