Measles - Know the symptoms
Measles often starts like a common cold, but symptoms quickly worsen.
Watch for:
• High fever
• Cough, runny nose
• Red, watery eyes
• A rash that starts on the face and spreads downward
Symptoms usually appear 7–12 days after exposure.
If you think you or your child may have measles:
📞 Call your healthcare provider before going in so they can prevent exposing others.
