Measles exposure alert tied to seven Nashville venues during July 1–4 weekend
Nashville health officials warn that people who visited seven Nashville-area venues between July 1–4 may have been exposed to measles after the city confirmed its first 2026 case. A second Middle Tennessee case, in Murfreesboro and fully vaccinated, is linked to Catfeine Cat Cafe. Officials urge watching for symptoms (rash, fever, cough, red eyes) and note that those who aren’t vaccinated should consider the Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) vaccine at clinics listed by the Metro Public Health Department (East Nashville, Lentz, and Woodbine centers).
