Dear Campus Community,

We are writing to inform you that a secondary case of measles has been identified in an individual associated with the CDI, NAC, and ASRC Buildings. This case is connected to a previously reported measles exposure. Out of an abundance of caution, we are notifying the community and sharing steps you can take to protect yourself and others.

Who may have been exposed

Individuals who were in the CDI, NAC, and ASRC Buildings during the potential exposure period August 13 to 15 may have been exposed to measles. If you were not in the buildings during that time, your risk is very low.

What to do now

1. Check your immunity status.
   • You are considered immune if you have written documentation of two doses of MMR vaccine, a positive measles IgG titer, or a provider-verified history of measles.
2. Monitor for symptoms for 21 days after the last possible exposure (the measles incubation period).
   • Early symptoms: fever, cough, runny nose, red eyes.
   • Rash: typically appears 3–5 days after the fever begins, starting on the face and spreading to the rest of the body.
3. If symptoms develop:
   • Stay home and isolate immediately.
   • Do not walk into a clinic or campus health office without calling first.
   • Contact your healthcare provider or Student Health Services (Phone 212-650-8222 or email SHS@ccny.cuny.edu ) for guidance on testing and care for guidance on testing and care. We will arrange safe evaluation to prevent further exposure.
4. If you are not immune or unsure:
   • Contact your healthcare provider or Student to discuss MMR vaccination. The MMR vaccine is safe and effective and can help prevent illness after exposure in some circumstances.

For privacy reasons, we cannot share personal details about the individual. The Department of Health assisted by student Health Services team is conducting appropriate contact tracing and outreach. If you receive a direct notification, please follow the instructions provided.
