—

Taber is located about one-and-a-half hours west along Highway 3 from Medicine Hat.

Anyone who attended these locations at these times who was born in or after 1970 — and has less than two documented doses of measles-containing vaccine — is at risk for developing measles, AHS says.

They are strongly encouraged to review their immunization records and monitor themselves for symptoms of measles.

Measles is an extremely contagious disease and is spread easily through the air.
