Tallaalka jadeecadu waa ammaan.
• Waa wax la fahmi karo in laga yaabo in dadku qabaan walaacyo badqab ama su'aalo ku saabsan jadeecada. Waxa jira macluumaad badan oo khaldan oo ku saabsan tallaalada.
• Waynu ognahay in tallaalka jadeecadu yahay mid ammaan ah sababtoo ah saynisyahano ka mid ah bulshadeena ama daafaha dunida jooga ayaa darsayay sannado badan.
• Dhakhaatiirta bulshadeenu way ku kalsoonyihiin tallaalka jadeecada. Dhakhtarkaga ama farmashiistahaaga ayaa awooda in uu ka jawaabo su'aalahaaga oo qanciyo walaacyadaada.
• Ma jiro wax xidhiidh ah oo ka dhexeeya tallaalka MMR iyo autism-ka. Tallaaladu ma keenaan autism.
Qof walbaa wuu ka gacan geysan karaa ka hortaga jadeecada.
• Habka ugu wanaagsan ee aan ku ilaalin karno nafaheena, qoysaskeena iyo bulshadeenu waa in aan is-tallaalno.
• Haddii aadan tallaalnayn, joog guriga kana fogoow dadka kale marka ay kugu dhacdo jadeecadu ama aad isku aragto astaamaha. Tani sidoo kale waxa ay gacan ka geysataa ka hortaga faafitaanka fayraska jadeecada.

Waa muhiim in aad ogaato astaamaha jadeecada iyo waxa ay tahay in aad samayso haddii aad aragto.
• Astaamaha jadeecadu isku mar ma soo wada baxaan. Haddii aad leedahay qandho sarre, qufac iyo indho cas waxa ay noqon kartaa jadeeco. Joog guriga oo dhugo finan kaaga soo baxa dhawr maalmood guddahood.
• Haddii aad aragto finan, wac rug caafimaad ama dhakhtar. Tani waxa ay gacan ka geysan doontaa in aad samayso booqashada adigoon qaadsiin dadka kale fayraska.
• Haddii ay kugu dhacday jadeeco, joog guriga oo ka fogoow xubnaha kale ee qoyska ama dadka kale ee aad la nooshahay. Tani waxay ka caawinaysaa in ay ka badqabaan fayraska.

Tallaalka jadeecada waxaa lagu heli karaa bilaash ama qiimo jaban.
• Wac rugtaada caafimaadka, farmashiistahaaga, xafiiska dhakhtarka ama daryeel bixiye caafimaad.
• Tallaalada waxa si bilaash ah loogu heli karaa ciyaalka ka yar 19 ee Washington, iyada oo aan loo eegayn in ay leeyihiin caymis caafimaad.
• Tallaallada waxaa si bilaash ah loogu heli karaa dadka waawayn ee 19 sanno ama ka wayn ee aan haysan caymis. Mararka qaarkood bixiyayaashu waxa ay qaadaan khidmad yar si ay kuu siiyaan qaadashooyinka.

Measles is here, but we can help prevent it from spreading further. If you have been close to someone with measles and you are unvaccinated, doctors advise us to stay apart from other people for 21 days. You can spread the virus even if you feel healthy, although you should watch for symptoms: fever, cough, runny nose, red and watery eyes, and rash. Also, if you’ve been exposed, call your doctor or clinic. They can tell you whether you should get the measles vaccine.

Measles is in our communities, but we can protect our families and ourselves from this serious illness. Experts and our doctors tell us the measles vaccine, also called the MMR vaccine, is the strongest protection. The measles vaccine is safe and proven to work. It makes our immune systems stronger, teaching the body how to protect itself against the virus. When more of us get vaccinated, we help protect people who cannot get vaccinated. Call your doctor or clinic, or find a vaccination location at https://doh.wa.gov/you-and-your-family/immunization/diseases-and-vaccines/measles-mumps-and-rubella-mmr

Measles is spreading in our communities, and we should know how to recognize it. People with measles usually get a fever, cough, runny nose, red and watery eyes, and rash. These symptoms do not all happen at the same time. If you see a rash, call your doctor or clinic. They will make a plan for you to visit without potentially exposing others to the measles virus.
