Media Release: Public measles exposure - May 1

Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health is advising the public of a measles exposure at Guelph Medical Place Pharmacy, 83 Dawson Rd, Guelph on May 1, 2025, from 1:00 pm-3:45 pm

If you were at this location, you may have been exposed to measles. 

Anyone who is not fully vaccinated against measles, and visited the location during the timeframe above, should monitor for symptoms of measles until the end of day on May 22, 2025. Early symptoms include:  

  • Fever  
  • Runny nose and cough  
  • Red, watery eyes  
  • Small white spots inside the mouth  

Notify your doctor or healthcare provider if symptoms appear. If you think you may have measles stay home – do not go to work, school or other places where people congregate. Call your healthcare provider’s office to make an appointment and let them know you think you have measles so that they can make sure they take appropriate precautions to limit the spread.

WDG Public Health issues measles exposure notices when we are unable to contact all individuals who may have been exposed at specific locations and timeframes. School and child care exposures, as well as exposures in other locations that may require the public’s attention, are posted atwdgpublichealth.ca/alerts/measles-exposures-community.

For more information, contact your health care provider, visit wdgpublichealth.ca/measles or call 1-800-265-7293 ext. 7006 to speak with a Public Health nurse.
