Anyone who attended this location at any of these times, who was born in or after 1970 and has fewer than two documented doses of measles-containing vaccine or has never had measles disease, may be at risk for developing measles and may be asked to take additional precautions if presenting to a healthcare facility.

Health advice for measles:<\/p>\n
Measles is an extremely contagious disease and the virus spreads easily through the air.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Symptoms of measles include:<\/p>\n
Fever of 38.3\u00b0 C or higher; and
\nCough, runny nose and\/or red eyes; and
\nA rash that appears 3 to 7 days after fever starts, usually beginning behind the ears and on the face and spreading down to the body and then to the arms and legs. The rash appears red and blotchy on lighter skin colours. On darker skin colours, it can appear purple or darker than the skin around it, or it might be hard to see.<\/p>\n
If symptoms of measles do develop, individuals are advised to stay home and call the measles hotline at 1-844-944-3434 before visiting any healthcare facility or provider, including a family physician clinic or pharmacy.<\/p>\n
Measles vaccine is highly effective at preventing infection and complications. In Alberta, measles vaccine is offered, free of charge, through Alberta\u2019s publicly funded immunization program. The\u00a0recommended schedule for measles immunization<\/a>\u00a0is two doses, the first at one year of age and the second at 18 months.\u00a0<\/p>\n If you think you have been exposed, and you are not protected against measles you may be able to receive immunization to reduce the risk of infection. A dose of vaccine needs to be given within 72 hours of exposure to prevent measles. Babies under one year of age, people with severely weakened immune systems, and those who are pregnant may be able to receive immunoglobulin within six days of exposure to prevent disease. Call the measles hotline at\u00a01-844-944-3434\u00a0for more information if these situations apply to you or your family.\u00a0<\/p>\n Albertans uncertain of their, or their child\u2019s immunization history, can check eligibility and\/or book an appointment by calling the measles hotline at\u00a01-844-944-3434.\u00a0<\/p>\n Individuals who are 14 years of age and older can also check their immunization history using\u00a0My Health Record<\/a>.
