#Measles can be a serious infection that can lead to complications, especially in young children & those with weakened immune systems. Measles spreads easily but it is preventable. Make sure you & your loved ones are up to date with your #MMR jabs or catch up on any missed jabs.

I don’t care about job titles, hierarchy, status and privileges in a leader. I care about how honest you are, approachable, inclusive, how you own your mistakes, ask for help & cheer on your team 🧁
