Nine people who visited Disneyland or Disney California Adventure Park in December have confirmed cases of measles, state public health officials announced Wednesday.

Three further suspected cases of the highly infectious, airborne viral disease are under investigation, according to a news release from the California Department of Public Health.

All of the confirmed and suspected cases were for individuals who reported visiting the Anaheim theme parks between Dec. 15 and Dec. 20, the release stated.

“It is likely that a person infectious with measles was at one of the theme parks on these dates. People can be infectious with measles for nine days,” the state’s news release said. “Several large contact investigations are ongoing.”
