A tour through Parliament is among several new locations of interest connected to a measles case in a traveller who visited New Zealand.<\/p>\n

The traveller was infectious during their visit from 23-27 February.<\/p>\n

The new locations include both Auckland and Wellington airport, several trains between Upper Hutt and Wellington, and an afternoon parliament tour.<\/p>\n

Health New Zealand said anyone who suspected they had measles should phone ahead before visiting their doctor so they could take precautions to stop it spreading.<\/p>\n
