How to get help: Erie County health department resources for measles concerns

Erie County officials said residents who suspect exposure to measles should contact the Erie County Department of Public Health for a risk review and to get guidance on next steps.

"If you believe you've been exposed to measles, please contact us at the health department, and we'll go through with you any risk factors that you may have," said Erin Renick, director of the health department. She also advised those with symptoms to contact their health care provider before going to a facility.

John Stale told listeners where to find official county guidance online: "Head over to eriecountypa.gov. Go over to the health department page and look for the health now icon." The officials did not provide vaccine clinic schedules, cost information, or locations in the recorded remarks; listeners were referred to the county website for the latest logistical details.
