TL;DR

Colorado health officials confirmed a measles case in an international traveler and released a list of exposure sites across the Denver metro area with dates and times. People who were at those locations during the listed windows should monitor for measles symptoms for 21 days after exposure, especially if unvaccinated, and contact a healthcare provider if symptoms develop or before seeking care. The state DFS also urged calling ahead before visiting medical facilities and noted the public health page will be updated if more sites are identified.
