In light of the recent measles cases confirmed here in Colorado, including a rare breakthrough infection in a vaccinated individual, we’re re‑releasing one of our most relevant conversations. In this episode, Colleen Roahrig sits down with Heidi Belatti, RN, to help parents, caregivers, and educators understand what measles is, how it spreads, and what families can watch for during an outbreak.
Heidi breaks down early warning signs, common symptoms, and what puts certain communities at higher risk. She also discusses practical ways families can stay informed, reduce exposure in school and childcare settings, and navigate public health updates with confidence.
This replay offers calm, clear, fact‑based information to help parents stay aware.
