12.01.2022 HEALTH ALERT measles case in the ACT. ACT Health is advising the community to be aware of measles symptoms after a person transiting through the Canberra Airp...ort on Thursday 21 March has been diagnosed with the highly-contagious disease. Look out for signs and symptoms of measles between now and 8 April 2019 if on Thursday 21 March you were: - travelling on flight QF1543 from Brisbane to Canberra at 8am - travelling on flight QF809 from Canberra to Melbourne at 8.49am - in the airport departure terminal between 8am and 10am Symptoms of measles include fever, tiredness, runny nose, sore eyes and a cough. This is followed by a rash which appears 2-7 days later. People generally develop symptoms 7-18 days after being exposed to a person with infectious measles, with 10 days being more common. People are infectious from approximately 4 days before they develop a rash and 4 days after. Anyone with symptoms should seek medical advice, advising their healthcare provider BEFORE arriving at the clinic so that appropriate infection control precautions can be put in place to stop the spread of infection. Two doses of Measles Mumps Rubella vaccine (MMR) are required for immunity against measles and are given to children in Australia at 12 and 18 months of age. The MMR vaccine is free and can be given at any age after 9 months. Measles also continues to circulate in many overseas countries, so people travelling overseas should check their immune status before they leave. This is a timely reminder for Canberrans to ensure their vaccinations are up to date. Read the full alert here http://bit.ly/ACTmeaslesalert-March
