Think measles: reminder poster to call ahead for young people

Updated 24 June 2022

Applies to England

If you think you’ve got measles call ahead

Have you got a rash and do you feel very unwell – don’t go to the surgery, walk in centre or your local accident and emergency department.

Call ahead, that way if you do have measles – you won’t pass it on to others – it can be a fatal disease if someone has a weak immune system and can’t fight it off and if a pregnant woman catches measles it can harm her baby.

Measles is serious, call ahead and get advice.
