Here's the latest on the measles outbreaks in Indiana and Kentucky

EVANSVILLE – The health district that covers Henderson and multiple other counties in Western Kentucky disclosed a potential measles exposure at a restaurant in Owensboro. According to a post to the Green River District Health Department Facebook page Friday morning, the possible exposure occurred at Colby's Fine Food & Spirits on Oct. 29. Kentucky's Cabinet for Health and Family Services states the exposure took place some time between 11:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. That would have been a few hours before the start of the city's "Trail of Treats" event downtown. Anyone who was in or around the restaurant at that time is encouraged to monitor for symptoms through Nov. 19. The announcement comes on the heels of the first confirmed measles case in Henderson County.
