This is too scary....knowing that it's airborne is just too big of a risk to choose NOT to vaccinate IMO. Hope it does not spread any further.

It's my understanding vaccines can take a couple weeks to be fully effective so I would probably keep your LO out of the public as much as possible for a little while. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/measles-outbreak-in-oc-ca#post-1496346 Sat, 15 Mar 2014 20:11:42 +0000 lawbee11 1496346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: Right??

I know there are quite a few bees in the area too. </p> <p>This particularly caught my attention, "...a substantial increase from the zero to one cases seen on average annually."</p> <p><a href="http://lakeforest-ca.patch.com/groups/around-oc/p/measles-alert-have-you-been-to-these-places-on-these-days" rel="nofollow">http://lakeforest-ca.patch.com/groups/around-oc/p/measles-alert-have-you-been-to-these-places-on-these-days</a></p> <p>Glad we just got the MMR vax yesterday! </p>
