California Public Health Department Responds to Measles Case
Posted: Mar 31st, 2016 at 03:49PM
California Public Heath officials have announced that a student has tested positive for Measles at one of its Nevada County schools. A student from Yuba River Charter School has tested positive for the virus after traveling overseas. This is particularly troubling, because this specific school is known for it's low vaccination rates. Public health officials are now working to try to prevent a possible outbreak among students and the community.
According to data from the California Department of Health, the Yuba Charter School is classified as "most vulnerable" when it comes to outbreaks, since their vaccination rate is so low. The Kindergarten class at the school only has a vaccination rate of 42.6%. At the moment, only staff and students who have been vaccinated are only allowed to return to the school. According to the California Department of Public Health, at least 95% of the people at the school need to be vaccinated to create a "herd immunity" that will stop outbreaks. As you see from the previous number given, the school is very far from the 95% that is required for that.
Dr. Karen Smith, the director and State Public Health Officer at the California Department of Public Health, Measles is something that is very easy to prevent. "Immunization is the best way to protect against measles. Two doses of the Measles, Mumps and Rubella vaccine are approximatley 97 percent effective at preventing disease in exposed persons."
The common symptoms for Measles can include "diarrhea, ear infections, and pneumonia."
Plenty of services to be used. Easy to use and quickness. I was in and out.

Very Nice people. They kept their word on privacy and stood on business. I never had to take a urine test while being on medication to help me get off opiates. I showed proof what medication I was on and the proces went smooth.

My nurse/aide made the entire experience delightful! Was there for a urinalysis but was bladder shy for some reason even after two bottles of water.. she was upbeat, kind and so helpful. She made the experience wonderful instead of stressful that's it easily could have been. The facility is extremely clean and the staff is top notch from beginning to end! It's completely across town from me but I will use this facility from now on.
