The Clark County Center for Community Health in Vancouver, Wash., Saturday, Jan. 26, 2019.
Clark County Public Health identified two new confirmed measles cases Saturday and no new suspected cases.
That brings the total number of confirmed cases in the Vancouver-area outbreak to 70.
With the two new confirmed measles cases, Clark County Public Health also identified a new location where people may have been exposed to the virus: the Vancouver Clinic, 700 NE 87th Ave., Vancouver, Washington, from 3:30 to 9:30 p.m., Friday, March 1 and 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Saturday, March 2.
Along with the Clark County cases, there has also been one case confirmed in the Seattle area.
There have been four confirmed cases in Oregon, all Multnomah County residents. There could potentially be more as the Oregon Health Authority reported Friday that a traveler contagious with measles traveled in Portland and multiple locations in Salem. [Copyright 2019 Oregon Public Broadcasting]
