WA Health has identified two new measles cases who were infectious while visiting several locations.
There have now been 14 confirmed measles cases in the WA since 19 March.
The recent cases had visited the Bunbury Regional Hospital.
The two news cases were at various public spaces in the Perth metropolitan area and South West between 6 and 11 April 2025, including shops, food venues, a pharmacy, medical centre and Bunbury Regional Hospital.
New exposure sites have been added to the Department of Health website.
Anyone who was at these locations during the listed dates and times should stay alert for symptoms.
Measles can lead to serious complications, including pneumonia and brain inflammation (encephalitis).
Early symptoms include fever, tiredness, cough, runny nose, and sore eyes, followed by a florid red non-itchy rash three or four days later. The rash usually starts on the face and spreads to the rest of the body. People with measles usually feel very unwell.
Infants under 12 months are particularly vulnerable as they are too young to be fully vaccinated. The measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine is normally given at 12 and 18 months of age.
Two doses of the measles vaccine are highly effective in preventing infection. The vaccine is free in WA for anyone born in or after 1966 who hasn't already had two doses.
Anyone who is concerned they (or a loved one) may have measles should seek medical care. They should call ahead to their GP or emergency department to discuss their situation to prevent the chance of spreading the infection to others.
