Indiana health officials say a person diagnosed with measles may have exposed visitors at Indianapolis' Super Bowl Village to the disease.

WISH-TV reports that two cases of measles have been confirmed in central Indiana.

State health officials say one of those infected individuals visited the Super Bowl Village last Friday, but details of that person's visit are still unclear. More than 200,000 people visited the Super Bowl Village last Friday.

Health officials are asking people to contact their doctors if they develop symptoms of measles.

Those symptoms include coughing, a runny nose, a full-body rash and fever. Because most people have been immunized against measles, those who haven't received the vaccine are at highest risk for the high contagious virus, which is spread through the air.
