The elementary school-aged child contracted the highly contagious respiratory disease after coming into contact with someone in Portland who had the disease. Last month, Oregon health officials warned people of possible measles exposure at a Portland hospital, a Beaverton medical clinic and a Beaverton UPS store.

The Clark County child came into contact with an infected person at one of those locations and was placed under surveillance by health officials, said Dr. Alan Melnick, Clark County Public Health administrator/officer. Health officials told the child’s parents what symptoms to watch for, Melnick said.
