Alabama health officials reported a case of measles in Huntsville involving an international traveler who visited businesses in the Bailey Cove area on October 4, 5 and 7.
The information provided identifies the area and dates of the visits but does not name the businesses. It also does not specify the year, when officials announced the case, or whether the traveler visited any other locations.
The report does not provide details about the traveler’s condition, when the measles case was confirmed, or how the infection was identified. It also does not say whether other cases have been reported in connection with the traveler or whether officials have identified people who may have been exposed.
