Confirm MMR vaccination status for children and infants; if traveling internationally with infants (6–11 months) arrange an early MMR dose per NYC Health guidance.
Expect NJ Transit / Amtrak schedule disruptions through March 14 — avoid weekday peak travel (7–9 a.m.; 4–7 p.m.) where possible and allow extra travel time.
Keep situational awareness in crowded public spaces (malls, transit hubs); report suspicious activity and follow local police guidance.
Monitor official NYC Health Department updates for any additional measles exposure notifications and follow instructions if notified.
Check transit operator advisories (NJ Transit, Amtrak) and ferry/PATH cross-honoring options before travel; purchase flexible tickets if commuting.
