Measles reported in Vermont, New Hampshire

New Hampshire and Vermont residents have been confirmed as having measles after an exposure in Hanover in late June. Both infections have been linked to an international traveler.

The New Hampshire resident visited several public places when they were infectious and could have transmitted measles to people who are not immune (i.e. not previously infected or fully vaccinated), people with weakened immune systems who may have lowered protection from vaccination, or infants who have not yet received the vaccine.

The NH DHHS says anyone at the following locations and times may have been exposed:
 July 1, 1:30-3:30pm: Peppermint Patty’s, 25 Road Round the Lake, Grantham
July 1, 5:30-11:30pm: Sierra Trading Post, 200 S Main Street, West Lebanon
July 3, 9:00-11:30am: Dartmouth Co-op, 21 S Main Street, Hanover
July 5, 9:00am-12:30pm: Dartmouth Co-op, 21 S Main Street, Hanover
