Brisbane residents are cautioned to be on the alert for measles, after a case was diagnosed in a man who recently returned from overseas.
Metro North Public Health Unit confirmed the case, and it was believed the man visited Coles in Kenmore on Tuesday and Thursday while infectious.
Symptoms of the highly infectious usually start 10 days after contact with infected saliva which is spread through coughing and sneezing.
Initial symptoms included a fever, cough, lethargy, runny nose and sore eyes, followed a few days later by a red rash.
Anyone who developed potential measles symptoms were advised to stay home and contact their GP.
