The tourist visited businesses surrounding Disneyland while they were infectious.

Orange County public health officials confirmed Tuesday night that a measles case was detected in a tourist who visited a few businesses near Disneyland. 'Measles is highly contagious and can lead to severe disease in some individuals,' Orange County Health Officer Dr. Regina Chinsio-Kwong said. The tourist visited three Anaheim businesses while they were still infectious: Walmart at 1120 S. Anaheim Blvd. between 1 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.

Also, public health officials also recommended they monitor themselves for any illness that comes with a fever and/or an unexplained rash that appears seven to 21 days after exposure. If symptoms start to appear, doctors recommend individuals stay and home and call a health care provider for guidance immediately. 'People are contagious from approximately four days before the rash begins through four days after the rash appears,' Chinsio-Kwong said.
