There are 6 confirmed cases of measles in central Ohio, including 1 case with recent international travel. As part of this outbreak, the Ohio Department of Health announced a potential measles exposure at @columbusairport on February 18 between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m.

[Columbus Health @ColumbusHealth]

If you are unvaccinated and were there during that date and time, you should watch for signs and symptoms until March 11. Those who were at the airport during that time and who are vaccinated have a very low risk of getting sick.
