Are you immunised against measles?
A warning has been issued from across the ditch after two measles-affected Australians visited the lower South Island.
The Southern District Health Board (SDHB) confirmed a Queenstown resident was confirmed as a new measles case on Friday, bringing the total number of cases in the southern region to 58.
The majority of those – 53 – were in the resort. Two cases had been confirmed in Dunedin, along with two in Wanaka, and one in Oamaru.
Anyone who might have been exposed to measles should watch out for symptoms including a cough, runny nose, inflamed eyes, and fever followed a few days later by a rash.
They should isolate themselves immediately if they start to get sick, and call their GP practice in advance if they are seeking care.
Those needing advice can call Healthline on 0800 611 116, while the Immunisation Advisory Centre has information about measles immunity and the MMR vaccine on its website, and information on measles can be found on the Ministry of Health website.
