Travelers who visited Dulles International Airport earlier this month might have been exposed to measles, officials say.
The Loudoun County Health Department says anyone who was at the international terminal or baggage claim in the main terminal June 7 between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. could have been exposed to the virus. They said the virus was carried by an overseas traveler.
Measles can surface as long as 21 days after exposure. Symptoms include fever that exceeds 101 degrees, a runny nose, watery eyes, a cough and an eventual rash.
People experiencing symptoms should contact their doctor before going to the office or a local emergency room where the virus could spread.
No other cases have been reported since June 7.
