ADVISORY: New OHA Measles Tools for Providers – March 2026
Dear Colleagues,
We hope this message finds you well.
Benton County Health Department is sharing two new resources from the Oregon Health Authority (OHA):
- Clinical Algorithm for Suspect Measles Cases Without Known Exposure to Measles – a clinical tool to help providers evaluate patients with suspected measles who do not have a known exposure.
- Public Health Management of Asymptomatic Close Contacts of Measles Cases – a summary table outlining public health guidance for managing close contacts of confirmed measles cases.
Both resources are also attached to this advisory.
If you have questions about these resources, please contact Dr. Melissa Sutton at: melissa.sutton@oha.oregon.gov.
Thank you for your continued service and commitment to protecting the health of our community.
