Possible measles exposure prompts health alert at Colorado Springs Chick-fil-A

CDPHE warns of a possible measles exposure linked to a Chick-fil-A visit at 505 N. Academy Blvd in Colorado Springs on March 25 from 5–8 p.m., tied to two unvaccinated Weld County residents and unrelated to the Broomfield outbreak. People who were there during that window should monitor for measles symptoms (fever, cough, runny nose, red eyes, rash) through April 15 and seek medical care if they develop any signs. The exposure location is being investigated and health officials advise contacting a healthcare provider if symptoms appear.
