Health officials are flagging another measles exposure site in Multnomah County: the emergency waiting room at the Providence Portland Medical Center on Northeast Glisan Street.

Officials say people who visited the emergency waiting room on Monday, March 30, between 7:57 p.m. and 10:08 p.m. may have been exposed to measles.

The Oregon Health Authority is encouraging people who were there during that time to tell their doctors about the exposure risks.

Measles is highly contagious and can spread through the air after an infected person coughs or sneezes.

The virus can be deadly for sensitive groups, including children younger than 5 and people who are pregnant.

Last week, health officials confirmed a new measles case linked to a Gresham grocery store identified earlier this month as a measles exposure site. That person had previously received one dose of the MMR vaccine.

So far, there have been at least 11 confirmed cases of measles across the state this year.
