Bay Area resident may have exposed others to measles after travel, officials warn
Health officials in two Bay Area counties warned about a potential exposure to measles involving a resident who tested positive for the virus after traveling.
According to the Santa Clara County Public Health Department and the Alameda County Public Health Department, the person had returned home from international travel and passed through a U.S. airport where they might have been exposed to measles. The airport was not named.
As of Thursday, the person was not hospitalized and is isolating at home.
Officials released a list of businesses in Alameda and Santa Clara Counties where the person visitied, possibly exposing others to the virus.
Locations include:
• May 21 between 7:15 p.m. and 9 p.m. at the H Mart on 1719 Oakland Road in San Jose
• May 23 between 11:45 a.m. and 2 p.m. at the Starbucks on 34050 Newark Boulevard in Newark
• May 25 between 4:45 p.m. and 8 p.m. at the Trader Joes on 1306 Great Mall Parkway in Milpitas
People who visited the above locations at those times may be at risk for measles if they are not immune or unsure if they are vaccinated. Immunization records can be checked by contacting one's healthcare provider or by visiting myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov.
Anyone who is pregnant, the parent of an infant, have a weakened immune system or are unimmunized should contact their healthcare provider.
People potentially exposed should monitor for symptoms for seven to 21 days, which include fever, cough, runny nose, conjunctivitis and a rash that appears 10 to 21 days after exposure. Anyone with symptoms must call ahead to medical facilities before going in to protect other patients and visitors.
Officials are expected to provide an update at a news conference on Friday.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, the U.S. has seen 1,046 measles cases so far this year, with three deaths confirmed. Thirty percent of the cases were in children under 5 years of age.

An Optometrist Shared The One Eye Product We Should All Stop Using
Eye health is often overlooked. Tons of Americans skip their annual eye exams: Of those who are considered to be at high risk for vision loss, which is roughly 4 in 10 Americans, 40% didn't get their eyes checked out in the past year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. 'It's not until you have [a] problem with your eyes that you really become grateful for your vision,' said Dr. Michelle Holmes, an optometrist at Pacific Neuroscience Institute in Santa Monica, California. There's a lot you can do to protect your eye health. You can keep up with your annual eye exams, wear sunglasses to shield your eyes from the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays, and avoid wearing contacts to bed or in the pool, to name a few. But is there one habit you should never do, even though it may seem like eye care: Don't use eye-whitening, or red-eye relieving, drops. 'My concern with those types of eye drops is that eye-whitening drops can be used by someone to mask redness, and, oftentimes, that redness is a symptom of some more serious underlying condition,' Holmes told HuffPost. Here's why you may want to steer clear of redness relief eye drops. Related: If You Don't Pass This Extremely Easy Hygiene Test, You're Officially Stinkier Than The Average Human Related: It Turns Out That Most People Wipe Their Butts Completely Wrong, But This Doctor Is Here To Teach Us The Right Way When your eye is irritated, as it may be with pink eye or certain allergies, the blood vessels located in the front of the eye will dilate and engorge. 'That's what causes the white part of the eye to look red and angry,' Holmes explained. Those blood vessels serve an important purpose — when inflamed, they indicate something is wrong, Holmes said. This could be due to a mild problem, such as a cold or dust in the eye, or it may be a symptom of a more serious health condition like an infection, glaucoma or a corneal abrasion. 'It's not normal to have a red, angry-looking eye,' Holmes said. Red-eye relieving drops target these blood vessels to constrict and minimize their appearance. Temporarily, this makes the eyes white again, however, these drops could mask the problem at hand. 'It may make you think everything is OK with your eyes when really the can be something quite serious going on,' Holmes said. It's a bandaid, not a fix, she added. That redness can help your eye doctor detect eye diseases. With certain eye conditions, time is of the essence. Left untreated, they can worsen and lead to complications, including infections, and, in serious cases, vision loss. Not to mention, these drops may cause a rebound effect. 'As the eye drops wear off and nutrients and oxygen start to flow back through those blood vessels, they actually will dilate and engorge more than initially,' Holmes said. People can then get trapped in a cycle: their eyes appear red and irritated, they use redness-relieving drops that provide temporary relief, but then the redness comes back — this time, even worse — and they use the drops again. In some cases, people become dependent on red-eye relieving drops and the underlying health issue is never addressed, Holmes said. There are other remedies you can use instead. Whenever a patient tells Holmes they use eye-whitening drops, she recommends they opt for lubricating artificial tears instead. Her advice: use preservative-free drops — 'they're gentler on the eyes,' she explained. These products are generally thought to be the safest type of preservative-free eye drops. The Food and Drug Administration recently issued a warning against 26 over-the-counter eye drop products due to the risk of eye infections that may cause partial vision loss or blindness. Finally, if your eye is red and irritated, talk to an eye care provider. Even if you give your local eye clinic a call, the front desk should be able to triage the redness — and determine if you need follow-up care or testing — and recommend safe, effective eye drops. 'Oftentimes, the cause of the redness can be determined and more effectively addressed when the reason why is known,' Holmes article originally appeared on HuffPost.

People Are Sharing First Signs That A Kid Has Terrible Parents, And It's Heartbreaking To Say The Least
1. Warning: This post mentions child sexual abuse. Recently, Reddit user charming_cupzee asked, "What's the first sign that a child has terrible parents?" People had A LOT to say in the comments. Here are some of the most interesting (and heartbreaking) replies: 2."My parents told everyone that I was lying when I failed my school eye exam. They never took me to the eye doctor. Apparently, they thought I just wanted glasses. It wasn't until I failed the vision part of the driver's license test that they realized I do need glasses. School was so much easier when I could finally see." —dogandfroglover 3."A baby bottle full of Mountain Dew. 😟" —KatieWTFIsMyLife 4."If they become very quickly and inadequately attached to any adult who gives them attention and kindness." —sparkly_dreamz 5."I'm a teacher. I had one poor kindergartner last year with cockroaches inside the sandwich bag in his lunchbox, so his sandwich was inedible. It indicated that even the house is filthy. It breaks my heart knowing that there's genuinely nothing I can do for these kids, but we do what we can at school." —SherbetLemon1926 6."Someone who apologizes for their parents often." —BolaViola 7."When I was student teaching, I had a little boy who had lice for two MONTHS. It got to the point where they allowed him back to school even with the lice because his mom refused to do anything about it. She threatened to get the news involved for us preventing her child from getting a fair education. We reported her, but nothing came of it." —Stinky_ButtJones 8."The words they use and the topics they freely initiate conversations about. Kids pick up a lot from their environments you can learn a lot about the priorities of the adults in their life just by talking to the kid." —Facepalm_2025 9."When they seem like an 'old soul,' it's probably because they were forced to grow up too fast." —MangoSalsa89 10."I used to work in a daycare. Some of these poor children would come in with their diapers soaked through, and their little rear ends would have sores on them from having sat in a wet diaper for who knows how long. Also, these children were so hungry for a kind touch. I would cuddle them in my lap and make sure to spend time with them, letting them know they were loved. I hated sending them home every day." —CallMeWhatYouWilll 11."When a child flinches or freezes when a parent speaks or moves near them." —NoraBlake01 12."I had adults think I was a child of an alcoholic when I was a kid. I was extremely observant and cautious, and I was tied to the vibes of the adults. As an adult, I realize it was because I was the kid of a T1 diabetic with frequent and scary low blood glucose episodes. It turned my very calm, funny father into an intense and frightening person for short intervals." —radarsteddybear4077 13."They push away things that are good or sabotage something good because they always expect things to go bad." —JackRussellsForever 14."When the kid consistently smells like pee. Chances are they haven't pissed themselves; it's more likely that the parents don't wash their clothes or change them." —PepsiMaxHoe "A childhood friend always smelled like pee. I found out that she was being molested and would pee the bed to keep her dad away." —Brilliant-Building41 15."Constantly saying sorry, even when they didn't do anything wrong." —parasolka90 16."Stealthy kids. Like if a child is really quiet when moving, always super careful with doors, make no sound when they walk, and are always mindful of corners." —CanIHaveCookies 17."As a teacher, I had a student whose dad asked if I could hit him if he gave the school permission." —Embarrassed_Put_7892 18."All kids need to learn socio-emotional skills like impulse control, self-regulation, conflict resolution and sharing. Sometimes you run into a young kid where these skills are overdeveloped. A 3-4 year old who already knows how to defuse any situation. If their friend wants their toy, they give it up. If someone is angry at them, they pull a silly face to make them laugh. They always fawn and defer what they truly want to make the other party not be mad at them. That kind of kid breaks my heart. That kind of survival mechanism is usually only learned one way." —batikfins 19."When a parent doesn't validate their child's feelings and uses fear to get them to listen." —currentlyontheweb 20."If they're trying too hard to take on a caretaker role with their younger siblings rather than a sibling role, it's probably a sign their parents aren't doing an adequate job taking care of them." —Same-Drag-9160 21."My neighbors swear at their kids and scream at them. Their youngest is a 3-year-old girl." —Creepy_Philosopher_9 22."When parents pimp out their children on social media, such as family channels on YouTube." —Geester43 23."My mother tells her friends that I learned to fake a cough to get attention when I was a baby. Think about that. I was not getting attention by crying, so I had to come up with a new strategy. As an INFANT." —Fun_in_Space finally, something to consider before jumping to conclusions: "Many of the signs people mentioned on this post can be indicators of poverty, genetics, or nothing at all. As a teacher, I've worked with dozens of kids with constant DHS involvement, and there is very little in common between them. How parental problems manifest in kids is a crapshoot. It takes getting to know the situation before you really know what is going on with a kid." —sedatedforlife H/T r/AskReddit Some replies have been edited for length and clarity. If you are concerned that a child is experiencing or may be in danger of abuse, you can call or text the National Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-422-4453( service can be provided in over 140 languages. If you or someone you know has experienced sexual assault, you can call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE, which routes the caller to their nearest sexual assault service provider.
