Measles exposure reported at Beaverton trampoline park Published 10:50 am Friday, July 24, 2026 The Oregon Health Authority has identified a Beaverton trampoline park as a measles exposure location, saying those who were at the Sky Zone Beaverton, 10750 S.W. Denney Road, between noon and 3 p.m. Saturday, July 18, should talk to a health provider about risks if they believe they were exposed. “The healthcare provider can determine if you are immune to measles based on your vaccination record, age or laboratory evidence of prior infection,” said an Oregon Health Authority statement. The health agency warns that people are contagious with measles for four days before a rash appears and up to four days afterward, with particles that can linger in the air for up to two hours after someone who is infectious has left the area. The disease starts as a fever, cough, runny nose and red eyes. A rash usually follows, beginning on the face before spreading to the rest of the body. Symptoms begin seven to 21 days after exposure to a person with measles. The disease is especially dangerous for children under age 5, adults older than 20, those who are pregnant and people with weakened immune systems. Thirty-two cases of measles have been reported to the OHA, with 29 of those being individuals who are unvaccinated or have an unknown vaccination status. Two people in Oregon have been hospitalized with measles. Two doses of the MMR vaccine is 97% effective in preventing the disease, with the risk of severe disease being low for those whose vaccines are up to date.
