Health officials have issued a public alert to warn passengers who traveled to Newark Liberty International Airport that they may have been exposed to a highly contagious disease.
The Department of Health in New Jersey said in a statement on Jan. 12 that an international traveler with a confirmed case of measles had arrived at Terminal C at the Newark airport on Jan. 2 and departed for Indianapolis from a domestic terminal. The Indiana University student, who was traveling alone, was infectious on that day and may have traveled to other areas of the airport.
