With confirmed cases of measles in North Carolina, now is the time to educate yourself on measles and the MMR vaccine to protect yourself and your family.

Measles is a very contagious disease, but it can be prevented with a vaccine. It spreads through the air and by close contact with someone who is sick. The virus can stay in the air for up to two hours after a person leaves the area.
