The Summit County Public Health Department confirmed that a person in the county has measles.
A spokesperson said the person is unvaccinated and they are conducting contact tracing.
Health Commissioner Donna Skoda said the most important thing that you can do to protect yourself is to get the vaccine.
“Our communicable disease staff is working diligently to identify and notify any potential exposures,” said Skoda.
Measles can spread easily through coughing, talking, or being in the same room as someone infected.
