A team from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will be sent to Chicago to help with the measles response at the Pilsen migrant shelter
Diane PathieuA measles outbreak at a Pilsen migrant shelter in Chicago has a team from the CDC coming to the city to help with the response..
The newest case marks the third person in the city to have contracted the dangerous virus since last Thursday. Officials said 13 percent of residents in the shelter remain unvaccinated. Residents recently vaccinated have been encouraged to quarantine at the shelter for 21 days. "The measles virus is very contagious," Dr. Adeyemi said. "If somebody was infected with measles, coughs, sneezes in any area, it can hang up in the air for the next two hours," Adeyemi said. "The people who are infected can infect up to 90-percent of people that are exposed to that are not immune."
