As you may have heard, the Columbus area is experiencing a measles outbreak. Cases originally included only young children (age 4 and under), but at least one case has now been reported in a school aged child. Several infected children have required hospital care for their illness. With this rapid increase in identified cases (as expected based upon the highly contagious nature of measles), we want to make you aware so we can be prepared in the event we encounter Wyandot County residents as contacts of a positive case, or as a positive case themselves. Currently, we have NOT been notified of any measles cases among Wyandot County residents, but we want our community to be prepared.
Planning considerations for our school partners include:
· Measles is highly contagious. If one person has it, up to 90% of the people close to that person who are not immune (people born after 1957 who are unvaccinated and never had measles before) will likely also become infected.
· Infected people can spread measles to others from four days before through four days after the rash appears.
· Measles virus can live for up to two hours in an airspace after an infected person leaves an area.
· A person with measles will be isolated until at least 4 days have passed since the onset of the rash.
· About 1 in 5 people with measles in the US will be hospitalized (9 of the 24 cases in the current outbreak have been reported as hospitalized).
· A person who is exposed to measles and who doesn't have evidence of presumptive immunity are required to self-quarantine for 21 days from their last exposure.
o A person has evidence of presumptive immunity if they can document they were born before 1957 -OR- can document they have received at least one dose of MMR vaccine -OR- can document they have laboratory evidence of immunity -OR- can document they have had a previous physician diagnosed measles infection
· If there are multiple cases in a school that constitute an outbreak, quarantine is defined as 21 days from the last case
· Measles vaccine (MMR) is highly effective at preventing illness (approx. 93% effective after one dose and approx. 97% effective after two doses)
· Measles is a Class A reportable disease. It needs to be reported to our office immediately so we can initiate disease interviewing and contact tracing.
With this in mind, we encourage our school partners to think about how a measles case among a student would impact them. If you have any questions or would like to discuss/strategize further on this topic, please don't hesitate to reach out. We are here to support wherever we can. Please feel free to forward this information to your school nurses/clinic aides as appropriate.
