There may be community transmission of measles in our area.

Because of this, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services is recommending that local infants aged 6 to 11 months get an early MMR dose.

➡️ Measles can be dangerous, especially for young children. The MMR vaccine prevents measles and protects our community from further spread.

This early dose is recommended for infants 6 to 11 months old who live in Washtenaw, Monroe, Wayne, Oakland, Jackson, Livingston, or Lenawee counties, as well as infants who spend time in Washtenaw and Monroe counties.

This early dose does not count toward the routine two-dose series. Infants who get an early dose will still require doses at 12-15 months and 4-6 years per the standard schedule. This recommendation is currently in effect through May 16.

Our Aim

The Regional Perinatal Quality Collaboratives (RQPCs) aim to develop data-drive innovative strategies that are tailored to the strengths and challenges of each region to address preterm birth, very low birth weight and low birth weight, as well as maternal and infant mortality.

Furthermore, RPQCs ensure statewide-alignment with the strategies and goals outlined in the Michigan Mother Infant Health and Equity Improvement Plan (MIHEIP), and are tasked with addressing disparities in birth outcomes and health inequities.

Each RPQC engages cross-sector, diverse stakeholders and implement evidence-based interventions utilizing the Population Health Model and quality improvement methodology.

Region 9, our region, includes Hillsdale, Jackson, Lenawee, Livingston, Monroe, and Washtenaw counties of Michigan.
