Yet in recent years, herd immunity has declined due to vaccine misinformation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/schoolvaxview\/data\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Federal data<\/a> indicates that the proportion of kindergartners with vaccine exemptions has now reached an all-time high.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt least 95 percent of the population must be vaccinated in order to avoid outbreaks of measles,\u201d Dr. Fairchok says. \u201cThe percentage of vaccinated people has now dipped below that threshold, leaving communities, including those in Washington, vulnerable to measles outbreaks.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Measles symptoms\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Measles spreads from person to person through the air. Since the virus can remain in the air for several hours, it\u2019s possible to catch measles by entering a room where an infected person has been.<\/p>\n<p>Measles is so contagious that up to nine out of 10 people who are near an infected person are likely to get sick \u2014 unless they are immune, reports the <a href=\"https:\/\/kingcounty.gov\/en\/dept\/dph\/about-king-county\/about-public-health\/news\/news-archive-2025\/02-27-measles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Seattle &amp; King County Department of Public Health<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Symptoms of measles include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>High fever<\/li>\n<li>Runny nose<\/li>\n<li>Cough<\/li>\n<li>Red, watery eyes<\/li>\n<li>Blotchy rash that starts on the face and spreads all over the body<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Who&#8217;s at risk for measles? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While often referred to as a \u201cchildhood disease,\u201d measles can infect anyone \u2014 and it can cause severe health problems, even in healthy children.

Here&#8217;s what Dr. Fairchok would like you to know:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The measles vaccine does not cause outbreaks<\/strong>. The measles vaccine cannot cause the disease to spread from person to person.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vitamin A does not prevent or cure measles<\/strong>. Doctors may give vitamin A to patients who are infected with measles because the disease can cause vitamin A levels to drop. Too much vitamin A can be harmful.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vaccines do not cause autism<\/strong>. This is a recurring myth. <a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC8207024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Multiple studies have disproven the claim that vaccines cause autism<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><strong>How to get vaccinated\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Vaccination is the only way to protect yourself and your child from measles. The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/vaccines\/vpd\/mmr\/public\/index.html\">measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine<\/a> provides durable protection against each of these viruses and is extremely safe and effective. To receive maximum protection, you must get two doses of the MMR vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>The first dose is usually given to babies between 12 and 15 months. The second dose is given when children are between 4 and 6 years old. During an outbreak situation in your community, your doctor or other health care provider may recommend a slightly different dosing timeline.<\/p>\n<p>There are multiple ways to get the MMR vaccine for yourself or your child:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/updates-www.mccdn.io\/Find-a-Doctor\/\">Make an appointment<\/a> with your primary care provider or pediatrician<\/li>\n<li>Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marybridge.org\/services\/immunization-clinic\/\">Mary Bridge Children\u2019s Immunization Clinic<\/a> (in Pierce County)<\/li>\n<li>Use the <a href=\"https:\/\/experience.arcgis.com\/experience\/d9883df272e44f20ae6a76279f5d6a0b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Washington State Department of Health\u2019s Vaccine Finder<\/a> tool<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure whether you\u2019re protected from measles, talk to your primary care provider.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Been exposed or have symptoms? Here&#8217;s what to do<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you suspect you\u00a0or your child have\u00a0measles, it\u2019s important to seek care. However,\u00a0<strong>please call your doctor or\u00a0other health care provider\u00a0before you go<\/strong>. They can advise you on next steps to help avoid exposing others to the virus.<\/p>\n<p>Do not arrive at your doctor\u2019s office, urgent care or other walk-in clinic unannounced, as this may spread measles to others.<\/p>\n<p>If you are unvaccinated and have been exposed, contact your provider. Getting the measles vaccine within 72 hours of exposure may stop you from getting sick. Unvaccinated, high-risk people, such as infants who are unable to get the vaccine, can receive another type of medication within six days of exposure to help protect them from infection.<\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">\n<h3>Vaccine resources<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marybridge.org\/services\/primary-care\/immunization-clinic\/recommended-vaccine-schedule\/\">Recommended childhood vaccine schedule<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/vaccines\/imz-schedules\/downloads\/adults-schedule-easy-read.pdf\">Recommended adult vaccine schedule<\/a> (PDF)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marybridge.org\/services\/primary-care\/immunization-clinic\/vaccine-safety\/\">What to know about vaccine ingredients and safety <\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthychildren.org\/English\/tips-tools\/ask-the-pediatrician\/Pages\/can-vitamin-a-prevent-or-cure-measles.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Can vitamin A prevent or cure measles?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Measles resources for providers<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/downloads.aap.org\/AAP\/PDF\/ThinkMeasles-final.pdf?ACSTrackingID=USCDC_511-DM124764&amp;ACSTrackingLabel=HAN%20504%20-%20COCA%20Subscribers&amp;deliveryName=USCDC_511-DM124764\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Think measles one-pager<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/pedspandemicnetwork.org\/our-work\/recognizing-measles-in-your-patients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Recognizing measles in your patients<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/doh.wa.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/legacy\/Documents\/5240\/SCSI-Measles-RTPCR.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Measles specimen collection for RT-PCR<\/a> (PDF)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medialab.com\/dv\/dl.aspx?d=1932768&amp;dh=69efe&amp;u=69790&amp;uh=0e2a1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Measles specimen collection for serology<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. is experiencing its largest measles outbreak in 25 years.
