Measles Exposure Alert: What You Need to Know | Rochester News
Measles exposure alert: If you were at a business from Sept 9–11 and aren’t immune, you’re at risk. Symptoms appear 7–21 days later—fever, cough, red eyes, rash—and you can spread it before the rash even shows up. Call your doctor BEFORE visiting if you think you’ve been exposed. High-risk groups include kids, seniors, pregnant women, and immunocompromised individuals. Check your immunity status—born before 1957, two MMR shots, or past measles? You’re likely protected. Unsure? Contact Wayne County Public Health at 315-946-5749. Stay safe—measles is no joke.

Brooks Family Settles for $24M | Rochester News
New York is paying $24 million to the family of Robert Brooks, who died after being brutally beaten by correction officers at Marcy Correctional Facility — a tragedy captured on bodycams and now settled in both federal and state court. Governor Hochul called the death “senseless and horrifying,” vowing reforms to protect incarcerated people and honor Brooks’ memory. Several officers have already pleaded guilty, including one convicted of murder and manslaughter. The family will soon speak publicly about the settlement, as the state pledges to learn from this pain and build a safer prison system.
