Health officials warn a confirmed case of measles has been identified in the Brisbane area.

Public Health Physician Dr Bhakti Vasant said the infected person visited Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary last Sunday, Woolworths on Fifth Avenue in Marsden on Wednesday, and Logan Hospital on Thursday and Friday.

Brisbane's Metro South Public Health Unit has warned of a confirmed measles case.

Public Health physician Dr Bhakti Vasant urged anyone who visited these areas around the same time to ensure they were immune to measles.

“Measles is one of the most infectious of all communicable diseases and is spread by tiny

droplets through coughing and sneezing,” Dr Vasant said.
