The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment says a Broomfield child with a confirmed case of measles recently visited multiple locations across the metro area while they were contagious.
The child, who had not received the MMR vaccine, had no known exposure to recent cases in the state, and health officials suspect that unidentified measles cases may be occurring among people traveling through the area. CDPHE said the child visited locations in Broomfield, Lafayette, Louisville and Westminster. They advised anyone who may have been exposed to watch for symptoms for 21 days after the exposure.
