Two cases of measles have been confirmed as of Jan. 12 in San Bernardino County by the county's Department of Public Health. The cases are in conjunction with a recent outbreak at Disneyland, occurring between Dec. 15 and 20, 2014. Health officials say that it is possible San Bernardino county residents may have been exposed to measles because a confirmed cases visited public places while infectious. Potential exposure locations and times include: * Casino Morongo in Cabazon on Jan. 4, between 6 and 11:30 p.m.; * Magic Wok in Chino on Jan. 6, between 3 and 5 p.m.; * Jimmy’s Warehouse Sportscard (Swap meet in Westminster) in Whittier on Jan. 7 between 3 and 10 p.m.; * Pomona Valley Health Center - Urgent Care in Chino on Jan. 8, between 3:56 and 5:05 p.m. Measles is a highly contagious that causes fever, rash, cough, and red, watery eyes. Measles spreads easily by air and by direct contact with an infected person. Measles is contagious from approximately four days before the rash appears through four days after the rash appears. The San Bernardino Department of Public Health has been working with the above locations to contact people who may have been exposed to these cases. As a precaution, people who were in these locations around the same time as the individual with measles should take the following steps: * Monitor themselves for illness with fever and/or an unexplained rash from 7 days to 21 days after their exposure (the time period when symptoms may develop); if symptoms develop, stay at home and call a health care provider immediately or the DPH at 1-800-722-4794. * Do not visit a health care provider without first notifying them of your potential exposure.
