Join us in Celebrating National Public Health Week, April 6 - 12, 2026
Ready. Set. Action! is this year’s theme. As we celebrate, take a moment to recognize how public health has improved our daily lives, safeguarded our families, expanded our life spans, and strengthened our communities. This week is also a chance to honor the public health workers who show up for us every day — and to advocate for policies and practices that promote good health for all.
National Public Health Week 2026 invites all Americans to renew their commitment to strengthening the systems, science, and community partnerships that keep us healthy. Public health lives in our environments: the air we breathe, water we drink, sidewalks we walk and parks we enjoy.

Measles is very contagious. It spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. You can get measles just by being in a room where a person with measles has been. This can happen even up to 2 hours after that person has left.

The best way to protect yourself and your loved ones is by getting the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine. You should plan to be fully vaccinated against measles at least 2 weeks before you depart. If your trip is less than 2 weeks away and you're not protected, you should still get a dose of MMR. The MMR vaccine protects against all 3 diseases. Two doses of MMR vaccine provide 97% protection against measles. One dose provides 93% protection. Call Wilkes Health at 336-651-7450 or your doctor to schedule an appointment for the MMR vaccine. CDC does not recommend measles vaccine for infants younger than 6 months of age. If you are traveling with an infant, 12 months old or less, talk to your pediatrician or doctor for their recommendations.

Protect yourself with the vaccine. The best way to protect against measles is with the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine. MMR is safe and effective.

El sarampión puede causar graves complicaciones de salud, especialmente en niños menores de 5 años. Las complicaciones más comunes son infecciones de oído y diarrea. Entre las complicaciones graves se incluyen la neumonía y la encefalitis.
El sarampión es muy contagioso. Se propaga por el aire cuando una persona infectada tose o estornuda. Puede contraer sarampión simplemente por estar en una habitación donde haya estado una persona con sarampión. Esto puede ocurrir incluso hasta 2 horas después de que esa persona se haya ido.
Protéjase con la vacuna. La mejor manera de protegerse contra el sarampión es con la vacuna contra el sarampión, las paperas y la rubéola (MMR). La MMR es segura y eficaz. Dos dosis de la vacuna MMR tienen una eficacia de aproximadamente el 97 % para prevenir el sarampión; una dosis tiene una eficacia de aproximadamente el 93 %. Llámenos hoy mismo al 336-651-7450 para programar su MMR.
