This webinar brings together clinicians and public health leaders to share their real-world experiences when responding to measles cases in rural settings. Speakers will walk through what to do when a suspected case is identified, how local health departments can rapidly mobilize a response and provide education in congregate-living and agricultural settings, and how one rural clinic combined rapid operational changes with community outreach to expand vaccination and strengthen trust. Speakers will discuss practical, on-the-ground strategies for exposure response, rapid clinic operations, and community engagement that rural jurisdictions can adapt to their own settings.
