Ok Tauranga is soo close to home...I am a bit worried. Not re DD as she is Immunised! However I am not and I am pregnant and I know it is deadly to my baby.

Can you identify it in advance? what do they look like?]]> Sun, 06 Jul 2008 16:27:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=432805&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#432805 <![CDATA[Measles outbreak in Christchurch : Oh no, i hope your wee man is...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=432477&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#432477 Author: MissCandice

Hey, I am in Tauranga and my 20 month old daughter was dianogsed with Rubella (German Measels) yesterday. Another child at our daycare got it first and now my daughter has passed it on to my 10 week old baby!!!
It is more dangerous for him them my girl as she had her 15 month immunisations, which cover MMR.
It starts as little red spots all over the face and then moves to the body... they are generally unwell. ]]> Fri, 04 Jul 2008 17:53:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=431824&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#431824 <![CDATA[Measles outbreak in Christchurch : My brother was immunised and still...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=412277&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#412277 Author: Maya

My brother was immunised and still got measles when he was about 5, he was really, really sick with it and ended up in hospital but he was OK afterwards.]]> Fri, 13 Jun 2008 21:00:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=412277&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#412277 <![CDATA[Measles outbreak in Christchurch : Like the article said, sometimes...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=412262&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#412262 Author: mum2paris

Like the article said, sometimes it can lead on to other more serious things that come as complications of the infection process.   
Mostly they are ok though.]]> Fri, 13 Jun 2008 20:53:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=412262&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#412262 <![CDATA[Measles outbreak in Christchurch : eek I wonder what preschool it...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=412237&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#412237 Author: Rachael21

Very rarely is it fatal and then its normally only if the children are already ill with something else that has reduced their immune system. I wouldn't get yourself worked up about it, just look out for any measle like rash and if concerned take her to the doc.
I had measles and german measles as a kid and neither made me any iller than having the flu.]]> Fri, 13 Jun 2008 12:50:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=411810&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#411810 <![CDATA[Measles outbreak in Christchurch : A preschool has a measles outbreak!...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18201&PID=411779&title=measles-outbreak-in-christchurch#411779 Author: MissCandice

A preschool has a measles outbreak! Is measles deadly?
