MEASLES ALERT - BRISBANE ⚠️
Metro North Public Health Unit (MNPHU) has today confirmed a case of measles in Brisbane in an adult male.
The person affected travelled on two international flights during their infectious period, including:
• Flight QF5294 (Qantas/Jetstar): Phnom Penh, Cambodia to Singapore, which departed around 1430 on 17/02/2020
• Flight QF52 (Qantas/Jetstar): Singapore to Brisbane, which arrived at approximately 6am on 18/2/2020
Measles is spread from person-to-person by tiny droplets created during coughing and sneezing. The droplets can remain suspended in the air.
It is not believed the male attended any other locations which present a risk of transmission.
Metro North Public Health physician Dr Mekala Srirajalingam said people who caught these flights should seek medical advice if they develop symptoms.
“Symptoms usually start around 10 days after contact but can occur between 7 and 18 days after contact with an infectious person,” Dr Srirajalingam said.
“The initial symptoms of measles include fever, lethargy, runny nose, moist cough and sore red eyes which is commonly followed a few days later by a blotchy, red rash.
“If you do need to seek treatment or suspect you have measles like symptoms, it is important to call the medical practice first to say you could have measles, so that staff can take precautions to avoid spreading the disease to others.”
Vaccinations are recommended and funded for anyone born during or since 1966, and at least 12 months of age if they have not had two documented doses of measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine or had proven measles.
Due to ongoing measles transmission overseas, it is important to ensure adequate vaccination against measles prior to travel.
Children can be vaccinated for measles from the age of 6 months.
Measles can be distressing for those with the infection and can cause serious complications such as pneumonia and encephalitis (inflammation of the brain).
Further information on measles is available here or by contacting 13 HEALTH (13 43 25 84).
