The Atlantic Balloon Fiesta at Princess Louise Park in beautiful Sussex, New Brunswick. It is the largest FREE family outdoor event in Atlantic Canada.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Please see the following statement from Dr. Kimberley Barker, regional medical officer of health:

"The situation in Sussex continues to evolve. While we are not recommending the cancellation of community events at this point in the outbreak, we do recommend individuals planning to visit the area in the days and weeks to come ensure they are up to date on their measles vaccine. The measles vaccine is highly effective and available free of charge in New Brunswick. I also advise New Brunswickers to become familiar with the signs and symptoms of measles. Early symptoms may include fever, cough, sore and/or red eyes, runny nose. Within three to seven days, a red blotchy rash will appear, first on the face and then spreading to the body, arms and legs. Given how contagious measles is, individuals who develop symptoms should self-isolate from others and contact Telecare 811 for further guidance. My office will continue to work with community leaders in Sussex to provide public health advice and guidance as we navigate this outbreak."

Veuillez consulter la déclaration suivante, envoyée au nom du Dr. Kimberley Barker, medecin hygieniste regional:

 “La situation dans le Sussex continue d'évoluer. Bien que nous ne recommandions pas l'annulation d'événements communautaires à ce stade de l'épidémie, nous recommandons aux personnes qui prévoient de visiter la région dans les jours et les semaines à venir de s'assurer que leur vaccin contre la rougeole est à jour. Le vaccin contre la rougeole est très efficace et est disponible gratuitement au Nouveau-Brunswick. Je conseille également aux Néo-Brunswickois de se familiariser avec les signes et les symptômes de la rougeole. Les premiers symptômes peuvent être la fièvre, la toux, les yeux rouges ou endoloris et le nez qui coule. Dans les trois à sept jours qui suivent, une éruption cutanée rouge apparaît, d'abord sur le visage, puis s'étend au corps, aux bras et aux jambes. Étant donné la contagiosité de la rougeole, les personnes qui présentent des symptômes doivent s'isoler des autres et contacter Telecare 811 pour obtenir des conseils supplémentaires. Mon bureau continuera à travailler avec les responsables de la communauté du Sussex afin de fournir des conseils de santé publique et des orientations au fur et à mesure de l'évolution de cette épidémie.”
