Oregon Flags Sky Zone Beaverton for 3-Hour Measles Exposure Window

Q: What should Sky Zone visitors do now if they were there during the measles exposure window and are unsure of their immunity?

Anyone who was at Sky Zone Beaverton between noon and 3 p.m. on Saturday, July 18, and is unsure whether they are protected against measles should contact a health care provider immediately and report the possible exposure. A provider can assess immunity using vaccination records, age, or blood testing for prior immunity. In general, people are considered protected if they have documented MMR vaccination, lab evidence of immunity or past measles infection, or were born before 1957. If records cannot be found, CDC guidance says getting an MMR shot is safe even if a person may already be immune. For some exposed people, MMR vaccine may help if given within 72 hours of exposure, and immune globulin may be an option within six days for higher-risk groups such as infants, pregnant people, and those with severe immune compromise. Anyone exposed should watch for symptoms for 21 days after the visit. Measles symptoms usually begin 7 to 21 days after exposure and include fever, cough, runny nose, red or watery eyes, followed by a rash that typically starts on the face and spreads downward. If symptoms develop, people should not walk into a clinic, urgent care center, or emergency department without warning. They should call ahead so staff can arrange safe evaluation and avoid exposing others. People without evidence of immunity may also be told by public health officials to stay home from work, school, or child care during the incubation period.
