Schuyler County Public Health has confirmed the county’s first measles case connected to the continuing regional outbreak.
The county said the patient was not vaccinated. Public health officials reported that they had not identified any public exposure locations associated with the case.
Residents are being urged to check whether they are immune to measles and to contact a health-care provider about vaccination when needed. The county’s announcement emphasizes prevention while officials continue to monitor the regional outbreak.
Because no public exposure site was identified, the county did not issue a location-specific exposure warning with the announcement. Residents should rely on Schuyler County Public Health for any later case or exposure updates.
