Health officials in Philadelphia are warning specific travelers at Philadelphia International Airport of a potential measles exposure, which is not related to the recent local outbreak. The warning was issued for travelers and others who were in the Federal Inspection Area at Terminal A West last Friday from 2:50 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
According to health officials, the individual with measles was passing through the airport and is not connected to the recent measles case in Philadelphia. Measles is a highly contagious virus that can spread through direct contact with respiratory droplets or airborne droplets.
Dr. Landrus Burress stated that there is no threat to the general public associated with this case of measles, but those who were possibly exposed should take action if they are not protected against measles. It is strongly recommended by health experts that unprotected individuals who may have been exposed to measles should get the MMR vaccine.
Those born before 1957, those who have previously had measles, and those who have received two doses of the MMR vaccine are considered immune to the virus. It is important for those who were in the designated area during the specified timeframe to monitor their health and take precautions as needed.
