Public health officials are sharing information after a measles exposure involving a traveler who was infectious while passing through Asheville.

Anyone who was at the specified hotel on Aug 26 should watch for symptoms through Sept 16 and contact their local health department if they feel ill. Measles spreads easily and can linger in the air for hours, so early awareness is important. Vaccination remains the best protection, and individuals who are unsure of their immunity can speak with their provider or use the state’s measles immunity checker tool.

Las autoridades de salud pública están difundiendo información tras una exposición al sarampión relacionada con un viajero que se encontraba en fase contagiosa mientras pasaba por Asheville.

Cualquier persona que haya estado en el hotel indicado el 26 de agosto debe estar atenta a la aparición de síntomas hasta el 16 de septiembre y comunicarse con su departamento de salud local si se siente enferma. El sarampión se propaga con facilidad y puede permanecer en el aire durante horas, por lo que es importante estar alerta desde el principio. La vacunación sigue siendo la mejor protección; aquellas personas que no estén seguras de su inmunidad pueden consultar a su proveedor de atención médica o utilizar la herramienta estatal de verificación de inmunidad contra el sarampión.
