Measles outbreak declared in Central Kentucky as health officials urge residents to vaccinate
State health officials are urging Kentucky residents to get immunized against measles as a measles outbreak is declared in Central Kentucky.
Kentucky health officials on Friday announced four more cases of measles have been reported, including three from a household in Woodford County and one for a Todd County resident exposed while traveling internationally. None of the four infected were vaccinated against the disease.
According to the Kentucky Health and Family Services Cabinet, “measles is a highly contagious respiratory virus that can cause serious health complications, especially in young children.” Early symptoms include high fever, cough, runny nose, and red/watery eyes. The characteristic measles rash typically appears three to five days after symptoms begin.
The Health Cabinet says these cases are part of the largest measles outbreak in the United States since the disease was declared eliminated in 2000, with more than 1,200 cases across the country reported. This comes as the immunization rate for Kentucky kindergartners is reported at only 86.9 percent, lower than the national average of 93 percent.
The first dose of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine, which is 97 percent effective against measles, is routinely administered at 12 to 15 months, with a second dose at ages 4 through 6. The Lincoln Trail District Health Department offers vaccinations at all of their area health clinics. Contact the health department or your primary care provider for more information about vaccination.
