Measles

Posted on February 12th, 2024

If you think you may have measles please arrange a telephone appointment with a clinician do not visit the surgery.

The earliest signs of measles infection include:

  • high fever
  • runny nose
  • cough
  • red and watery eyes
  • koplik spots (small red spots with bluish-white centres) inside the mouth

After several days, a rash appears, usually on the face and upper neck. The rash spreads, eventually reaching the hands and feet and lasts 5 to 6 days before fading. Measles is commonly

confused with other infections that can lead to a rash.

MMR Vaccine

All children aged one year to 3 years 4 months should be offered the vaccine as part of their routine vaccinations at their GP surgery.

Pregnant women can have the vaccine at their GP surgery after their baby is born if they don’t have 2 documented doses.
