The University has confirmed several cases of measles in some of our faculties.

We are asking all students and staff to be extra vigilant for the symptoms of measles, in yourself and your friends and colleagues.

Anyone in the following courses may have an elevated risk of exposure, due to confirmed cases having attended these courses recently:

BIOSCI 101

BIOSCI 106

CHEM 110

COMPSCI 110

MEDSCI 142

MEDSCI 206

PHYSICS 160

The symptoms of measles include a fever, cough, runny nose, sore/red eyes, or a rash that appears on the face and then moves down the body.

There is a possibility you may have caught the illness, but your risk is very low if you have been fully immunised or you have had measles before.
