MEXIA, Texas (KXXV) — The Mexia Independent School District reported a confirmed case on measles in the district on Thursday.
But when 25 News contacted the Texas Dept. of State Health Services, the department responded:
We don’t have any confirmed measles cases in the Mexia area. We’ve contacted the district to ensure they’re aware. This seems to be a false alarm due to a miscommunication.
The Mexia school district shared another update Thursday afternoon saying all campuses will be closed Friday for cleaning. The superintendent also tells our Lauren Adams the case is confirmed.
