- Colorado health officials confirmed a vaccinated Denver adult as the state's 12th measles case on June 4, linked to Turkish Airlines flight 201 at DIA on May 13.
- This case follows an outbreak started by an unvaccinated infectious out-of-state traveler on the same flight, responsible for seven related cases including four passengers and three airport contacts.
- The vaccinated individual exposed others at public sites: Trader Joe's in Denver on May 29, King Soopers in Windsor on May 30, and Target in Glendale on June 2.
- Health officials recommend that individuals present at these locations keep track of any signs of illness—such as elevated temperature, respiratory issues, nasal congestion, eye irritation, and skin eruptions—for a period of 21 days. They should steer clear of crowded places and promptly reach out to their healthcare provider by telephone if any symptoms arise.
- Officials emphasize that vaccination remains the best protection with the MMR vaccine 97% effective, and that vaccinated people typically have milder symptoms and spread measles less often.
