Only Measles IgG is tested in Box Hill Lab.
If current infection is suspected, a throat swab for PCR is required. Measles IgM is sent to VIDRL
If current infection suspected: Measles is a Group A Notifiable Disease and requires immediate notification to IPAC and to DHHS by TELEPHONE (1300 651 160) upon clinical suspicion or initial diagnosis (presumptive or confirmed). A throat swab (dry or in UTM) is the preferred specimen. When approval from DHHS is received notify Microbiology to ensure the specimens are processed urgently.

The transit of specimen from Angliss or Maroondah lab and out of working hour collection may cause the prolonged turnaround time
