New York state health officials are warning against possible measles exposures in Saratoga and Warren Counties.
The Department of Health announced Sunday that a healthcare worker employed by Hudson Headwaters was confirmed to have the disease.
In addition to working at Hudson Headwaters, officials say the individual spent time at a Home Depot store and restaurant in Saratoga Springs and a Warren County medical practice between June 5th and 8th.
A person is unlikely to contract measles if they were born before January 1, 1957, have received two doses of the MMR vaccine, or have a lab test confirming immunity.
