Bay Area Measles Case Spurs Warnings of Possible Exposures at 3 Locations | KQED
Briefly

Dr. Sarah Rudman announced that a person tested positive for measles in Santa Clara County, having visited specific locations in Alameda and Santa Clara counties. Despite this, public health officials remain confident that the high vaccination rates in the community will help contain any potential spread. Businesses have been informed, and they have alerted customers without causing undue alarm, emphasizing that there’s no added risk from visiting these locations based on current vaccination trends.
"We have a very highly vaccinated population, which is why we expect to contain the spread of this disease if everyone pays attention to their own vaccination status..."
"We have no reason to believe there are other measles cases at these locations, and no reason to believe that going to these locations is of any greater risk than an average day in our very well vaccinated communities."
