By Y.M. Lowy

The Rockland County Department of Health advises residents to take precautions against measles as cases continue to rise across the country and worldwide. While no cases have been reported in Rockland, health officials stress the importance of vaccination and awareness.

Measles is a highly contagious disease that spreads through respiratory droplets and can lead to serious complications. The MMR vaccine remains the most effective way to prevent infection.
