I'm in that building five days a week. On the other hand, everybody at Bay State College (which leases the second floor) was required to prove immunity to measles before being admitted, so I don't think it will affect us much.

"...is among the most infectious germs known to disease researchers."

My mother was in the hospital for two months with measles. It's not a nice disease.

I was fairly shocked by the reaction of the A&P professor (who is a medical doctor). She's from the Philippines, where lots of people still get measles (don't they believe in vaccines?), and she regards it as no big deal.
