Vaccines & Immunizations

ALERT: MEASLES IS IN NORTH DAKOTA

Measles has been identified in North Dakota, and public health officials are working closely with healthcare providers and community partners to prevent further spread. Measles is a highly contagious virus that spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes and can remain in the air for up to two hours.

Symptoms typically begin with fever, cough, runny nose, and red eyes, followed by a characteristic rash that usually starts on the face and spreads downward. The best protection against measles is the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine, which is safe and highly effective.

Central Valley Health District encourages residents to review their vaccination status, monitor for symptoms, and contact a healthcare provider before seeking care if they believe they may have been exposed.
