Be on Alert for Travel-Related Measles – Measles Update

As we enter the spring and summer travel season, clinicians should be alert for cases of measles. Rapid recognition of measles in healthcare is essential to prevent transmission. Measles cases often originate from unvaccinated or undervaccinated US residents who travel internationally and are exposed abroad and then transmit the disease to people who are not vaccinated against measles. Join CDC and AMA as they discuss the current trends in measles epidemiology, recognition of measles, travel-associated risks, core healthcare infection prevention measures, and the importance of vaccination.
