Dick Young, auxiliary operations director at the University of Maine’s Cutler Health Center, spoke with WABI (Channel 5) for a report about preparing for the possibility of measles on campus. Young said UMaine officials are closely monitoring the measles outbreak in California and would follow Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines if there was a confirmed case on campus.
