Measles is a highly contagious viral disease that can lead to serious health complications—especially in young children and those with weakened immune systems.

✅ Symptoms to Watch For:

High fever

Cough, runny nose, and red, watery eyes

Rash that starts on the face and spreads downward

🛑 How It Spreads:
Measles spreads through coughing and sneezing. The virus can live in the air for up to 2 hours after an infected person leaves.

💉 Prevention Is Key:
The MMR vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella) is safe and over 97% effective with two doses. Vaccination protects not just individuals, but the whole community.

🌍 Why It Matters:
Outbreaks still happen when vaccination rates drop. Staying informed and vaccinated helps protect everyone—especially babies and vulnerable individuals.

Let’s work together to keep our communities healthy!

El sarampión es una enfermedad viral altamente contagiosa que puede causar graves complicaciones de salud, especialmente en niños pequeños y personas con sistemas inmunitarios debilitados.

✅ Síntomas a tener en cuenta:

Fiebre alta

Tos, goteo nasal y ojos rojos y llorosos

Erupción cutánea que comienza en la cara y se extiende hacia abajo

🛑 Cómo se propaga:
El sarampión se propaga a través de la tos y los estornudos. El virus puede sobrevivir en el aire hasta dos horas después de que una persona infectada se vaya.

💉 La prevención es clave:
La vacuna triple vírica (sarampión, paperas y rubéola) es segura y tiene una eficacia superior al 97 % con dos dosis. La vacunación protege no solo a las personas, sino a toda la comunidad.

🌍 Por qué es importante:
Los brotes siguen ocurriendo cuando disminuyen las tasas de vacunación. Mantenerse informado y vacunado ayuda a proteger a todos, especialmente a los bebés y a las personas vulnerables.

¡Trabajemos juntos para mantener la salud de nuestras comunidades!

Measles is so contagious that if one person has it, up to 9 out of 10 people around him or her will also become infected if they are not protected.This video...

Valentine’s Day is often associated with chocolates, sweets, and indulgence, but it’s a great opportunity to focus on health and wellness in a fun and loving way. Here are some healthy tips you'll love on this Valentine's Day!

1. Instead of a box of chocolate, (unless dark chocolate, of course) give your loved one a basket full of their favorite fruits or veggies! Eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables help with things such as: boosting your immune system, reducing disease risk, and help with weight management!

2. Hydrate with Love!

Staying hydrated helps with regulating body temperature, keeps joints lubricated, and prevents infections! To make it more fun, add fresh fruits like lemon, berries, or mint for a refreshing, heart-healthy drink!

3. Cook a healthy meal with your friends/family!

Instead of going out to eat, consider preparing a healthy meal at home! You can make heart healthy dishes like grilled salmon with roasted vegetables, a salad, or even a healthy veggie packed stir fry!

El Día de San Valentín a menudo se asocia con chocolates, dulces y caprichos, pero es una gran oportunidad para centrarse en la salud y el bienestar de una manera divertida y amorosa. ¡Aquí te dejamos algunos consejos saludables que te encantarán en este San Valentín!

1. En lugar de una caja de chocolate (a menos que sea chocolate amargo, por supuesto), ¡dale a tu ser querido una canasta llena de sus frutas o verduras favoritas! Comer una dieta equilibrada rica en frutas y verduras ayuda con aspectos tales como: estimular el sistema inmunológico, reducir el riesgo de enfermedades y ayudar a controlar el peso.

2. ¡Hidrátate con Amor!

¡Mantenerse hidratado ayuda a regular la temperatura corporal, mantiene las articulaciones lubricadas y previene infecciones! Para hacerlo más divertido, agregue frutas frescas como limón, bayas o menta para obtener una bebida refrescante y saludable para el corazón.

3. ¡Cocina una comida saludable con tus amigos/familiares!

En lugar de salir a comer, ¡considera preparar una comida saludable en casa! ¡Puedes preparar platos saludables para el corazón como salmón a la parrilla con verduras asadas, una ensalada o incluso un saludable salteado lleno de verduras!
