They say a person who attended games on Friday at Cedar Grove Park and Saturday at Exchange Club Park in Hillsborough developed measles symptoms on Sunday.

Measles is a viral illness that is spread through respiratory droplets. Symptoms include fever, cough, runny nose, red eyes and a rash that begins on the head and moves down.
Persons born before 1957 are likely immune due to having had the disease as a child.
Most people who have measles recover without complications, but it is especially dangerous for pregnant women, infants and persons with other health conditions that would be complicated by measles.
