Hi there,
thank you very much for sending the information regarding measles. As you mention, its highly contagious. I have a child (Alina Ewer) in Veronica Schiccitano’s class. Alina is vaccinated. I however have an immune disorder, and take medication that specifically warns against the risk of exposure to things like measles. I am probably immune due to childhood exposure, but this is not medically confirmed. Should the measles spread, I am likely to catch it too, and I am working in close proximity with pregnant women.
Can we as parents be kept closely updated please should the measles spread. I will need to take extra precautions to protect those around me should I be exposed.
