Ministry: Second Measles Case Confirmed
“The Ministry of Health has confirmed that the “second suspected case which was under investigation is now confirmed as measles.”
A Government spokesperson said, “Identified close contacts are being notified of this case update and all necessary precautions are being implemented.
“As a reminder, measles symptoms initially include fever, fatigue, cough, runny nose, sore red eyes, and a rash that starts on the face and spreads. If you suspect measles or have been exposed, contact your healthcare provider promptly.
“To protect against measles, ensure you and your family are up to date on the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella [MMR] vaccine. Children should receive doses at 12–15 months and again at 4–6 years. Adults born after 1957 who lack immunity should verify they’ve had two MMR doses at least four weeks apart. Vaccinations are available at local GP offices or the Hamilton Health Centre.
“Vaccination clinics are available at the Hamilton Health Centre for those needing their MMR vaccine.
- November 25–29: Mon–Fri, 4:00–6:00 PM
- December 2–6: Mon–Fri, 4:00–6:00 PM
“Clinics are for those aged 12 months and older who are unvaccinated or partially vaccinated. Individuals under isolation due to exposure should wait until cleared before attending.”
Minister of Health Kim Wilson emphasizes the importance of vaccination to protect against this highly contagious disease, which can cause severe complications like pneumonia and brain swelling, “Ensuring vaccinations are up to date is critical to safeguarding the health of our community. I urge everyone to take proactive measures to protect themselves and their families against this highly contagious disease, which remains common in parts of the world.”
The spokesperson said, “Residents are strongly encouraged to take advantage of these clinics. For more information or to address concerns about measles or the MMR vaccine, contact your doctor or the Hamilton Health Centre at 444-0720. Additional details on measles prevention and vaccination can also be found at www.gov.bm/measles.”

It is not good to learn any lesson by the cause or from a mistakes.
Measles Now !
We are waiting for the flu.
Be warmed……… there are those people with flu who will delibertaly spread / transfer that affliction including common colds and more over to others, out of maliscious spite !
The only way I and my family dealt with the COVIS 19 pandemic / viruses was to go into HERMIT mode or maximun social distancing +++ even to this day, wit our latest problem if you can see another persons eye balls you’re too close.
SIX feet was not good advice.
The standard face mask including the N19 is ideal for a pantomime .
It is immaterial what type viruses that plagues this island, I am no going to put my had in the lions mouth.
I treat every virus as if it is the deadly SMALL POX .
There is and will be no other viable choise .
This years invisible Mosquito , nick named the( no ~ see ~ em ) plague has tested ever one to the core including the litte babies imagine that their distress haveing been bitten many times over .
If we ALL had done 100% isolation during Covid 19 there would not had so many deaths .
Wrong needle try the other one!
I will never forgive those who in their un proven lack of judgemen until it was too late , forced me an many others to get un verified vaccinations which in many cases ended up in unpublished numbers of fatalities.
Some were maimed for life .
The entire island was blind sighted .
Can’t make the excuse that they would have died any way.
Some were maimed for life .
For those all the doctors and nurses who gave their dedicated valuable time at K.E.M.H. they are most deserving of much more than our gratitude .
