Nelson Marlborough is one of only four district health boards that is "measles-free" during the current outbreak.

If you think you have measles, health professionals ask that you call your GP before bringing symptoms into a clinic waiting room.

Measles starts with a fever (temperature over 38.5 degrees C) and usually a cough or runny nose, and perhaps sore, red eyes before the rash appears on day 4-5.

People are infectious from five days before the onset of the rash to five days after the rash starts and should stay in isolation during this time.

There have been 14 suspect cases notified by GPs to the Nelson Marlborough Public Health Service in September, bringing the total number of notifications for the year to 38.

The last case of measles in Nelson Marlborough was in November 2018. The person was placed in home isolation before they become infectious to others, and as a result no-one else caught measles, which demonstrates the importance of isolation.
