Huron Perth Public Health is warning Perth East residents of several measles exposures that occurred last week.
According to the Health Unit, there were exposures at Knollcrest Lodge Long-Term Care Home on Wednesday, April 9, from 6 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and again on Thursday, April 10, from 2:45 to 11:30 p.m.
There was also possible instances out in the community, including at Milverton Canada Post anytime from April 5 to April 13.
Exposures could have also occurred at the Milverton LCBO on April 10 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and at the Milverton Mini Mart on April 11 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Finally, there was possible exposure at the Stratford General Hospital Emergency Department on April 11 from 2:20 to 4:30 p.m.
HPPH says anyone who was at these locations during these timeframes needs to monitor for measles signs and symptoms for 21 days after exposure. This includes those who were present at the location only briefly as measles is highly contagious and can linger in the air for up to two hours.
