Stay home and away from others, including those you live with, if you have respiratory virus symptoms. Not only will you get the rest you need, but you will also protect the health of others—especially those at higher risk of severe illness.

Measles is one of the most contagious diseases. You can get it just by being in a room where a person with measles has been, up to two hours after they’re gone. But you can stop the spread by getting vaccinated. Visit your healthcare provider or pharmacy to get your MMR vaccine.
