People who may have been exposed to the measles last week by a person from Dane County who spent time in Rock County can expect a letter in the mail from the Rock County Public Health Department.
Communicable Disease Manager Kelsey Cordova says anyone who was at the following locations at the times and dates listed should check their vaccination status.
— The Milton Kwik Trip at 603 W. Madison Ave. on April 21, between 2:45 p.m. and 5 p.m.
— SSM Health St. Mary’s Janesville Hospital on April 22 between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m., or on April 23 between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Cordova says the health department’s been fielding calls from people who might have been exposed, but so far nobody in Rock County has tested positive for measles.
Cordova says the measles vaccine is highly effective.
