by The Washington State Health Department has listed Kings of Leon’s March 28 show at the Seattle’s Key Arena as a source of possible measles exposure. Anyone who was at the show should find out if they have been vaccinated for measles or have had measles previously. People who are un-vaccinated, aren’t sure if they’re immune, and develop an illness with fever or unexplained rash should consult a health care professional immediately. Public health officials urge them to call ahead to their clinic, doctor’s office, or emergency room before arriving so people in waiting rooms aren’t exposed.
