An 11โmonthโold infant who was due for her measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine the following month has been confirmed to have measles.
The preschool has notified parents of children who had been in close contact with her.
Measles spreads easily through coughs, sneezes, and contaminated surfaces. Watch for symptoms such as fever, cough, runny or stuffy nose, watery eyes โ these usually appear about 10 to 12 days after exposure.
If your child develops symptoms, keep them home and seek medical care promptly. Our Paediatric Urgent Care Centre is open every day, including weekends, to assess your child and guide you on the next steps to take.
