Avoid exposure: You should not expose yourself to other people, especially those that have an impaired immune system. Avoid public places until you have recovered.

Do Not Go Out/Infect: If you have measles one thing you do not do is go out where there are other people as you are very contagious and will infect all susceptible people who you are around with.If you are going to the Doctors office notify them that you have a rash and fever so that they can take precautions
