Measles

Here at Columbia Pediatrics, we are working hard to keep our families informed of the current measles outbreak.

If you are concerned about your child having measles, please call and inform the front desk so that you may speak to the Pediatrician on call.  Due to the highly contagious nature of this virus – these patients should not be seen in the office to help prevent infection of those at highest risk (our babies!).  Below, is information from the CDC regarding measles, as well as links to the local health departments and vaccination information.  As always, do not hesitate to call us with questions or concerns.
