    Effective at the stroke of midnight, Wednesday, anyone who is under 18 years of age and unvaccinated against the measles will be barred from public places until this declaration expires in 30 days or until they receive the MMR vaccination. There have been 161 cases of measles in Rockland County, NY. since October. The Health Commissioner is frustrated because infected individuals are continuing to go about their business in common areas, despite been told not to go out into the public. These include department stores, like Target, as well as food supermarkets using shopping carts.

    A county in New York has declared a state of emergency after more than 100 people have been diagnosed with measles. Rockland County officials announced that starting at 12 a.m. on Wednesday, anyone under 18 who has not yet been vaccinated will be barred from public places until they receive the MMR vaccine or until the emergency declaration expires in 30 days. It's unclear how the ban on public places will be enforced.
