SA Health: Local Measles Transmission Warning

SA Health has issued an urgent advisory following the confirmation of a locally acquired case of measles in an adult. This diagnosis suggests that undetected measles transmission is currently occurring within the Adelaide community. While the specific locations visited by the individual during their infectious period do not pose an ongoing risk, health officials urge residents to remain vigilant for symptoms.

Symptoms of measles typically include:

• High fever and cough
• Runny nose and sore eyes
• A blotchy rash that begins on the head and spreads down the body

The public is advised to check their immunization records to ensure they have received two doses of the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine. If symptoms develop, it is critical to phone your healthcare provider ahead of time to ensure precautions are taken to prevent further spread in clinical settings.

Product Safety: Nationwide Sunscreen Recall

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has updated its safety alert regarding a nationwide recall of specific mineral sunscreen products. The recall, active as of February 2026, affects all unexpired batches of Banana Boat Baby Zinc Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50+ and Hawaiian Tropic Mineral Zinc Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50+. The alert also extends to Solar Screen Mineral Zinc Hydrating Face and Body Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50+.

The recall was initiated due to the potential for the lotion components to separate, which may compromise the SPF effectiveness. Consumers are advised to cease use of these products immediately and return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
