US EditionOfficials warn of potential measles exposure at Shakira concert at MetLife Stadium
- On May 20, 2025, health authorities in New Jersey alerted the public that attendees of Shakira's May 15 performance at East Rutherford's MetLife Stadium might have come into contact with measles due to an infected visitor from another state.
- The alert was issued after health officials determined that an individual from outside New Jersey, who was contagious with measles, was present at the Shakira concert held from 7:30 p.m. To 1 a.m., during a period marked by an increase in measles cases nationwide, including outbreaks in Texas.
- Health officials advised potentially exposed persons to check vaccination status, monitor symptoms such as fever and rash appearing three to five days after initial cough and runny nose, and call providers before visiting medical facilities.
- The virus spreads through coughing and sneezing, can remain airborne up to two hours, and can cause serious complications including pneumonia, brain swelling, and pregnancy risks, while the two-dose MMR vaccine remains the safest protection.
- As of the May 20 statement, no linked cases had emerged in New Jersey, but officials urged caution due to potential symptom onset through June 6 and the exposure of tens of thousands attending this and similar events.
