Huron-Perth Public Health has reported a case of measles in the area.
This is the first lab confirmed case of the virus with contact tracing being completed.
Dr Lauren Hayward, Physician Consultant at HPPH says now is a good time to review information about measles and measles vaccination.
Measles is highly contagious as it is airborne and can remain in air and on surfaces for up to two hours.
Vaccination remains as the best protection against the measles virus and is part of Ontario’s publicly funded routine childhood immunization schedule.
