Measles found out Disneyland may spread to other communities. It is important that we stamp out measles everywhere and that we make sure we do what we can to convince others of the importance of vaccines. “A measles outbreak that began at Disneyland may have spread to others in Orange County, where health officials warned the public Thursday about possible exposure. Orange County health officials confirmed two more unvaccinated children -- who were all old enough to be vaccinated -- contracted measles between Dec. 15 and Dec. 20 at the amusement park. On Wednesday, Californias Department of Health reported nine confirmed cases of measles, of which one case was in Orange County. But others could have been exposed to measles at health facilities in the area while the three children were infectious, said Orange County Health Care Agency spokeswoman Nicole Stanfield. At least three other cases have been confirmed, bringing the county total to six.” latimes/local/lanow/la-me-ln-measles-may-have-spread-officials-warn-20150108-story.html
