US Measles Cases Surge To Alarming Levels Not Seen In 25 Years


The disease was declared eliminated from the US in 2000, with the CDC attributing this success to a highly effective vaccination program and better measles control in the Americas region. The milestone, which meant that there was no continuous transmission for more than 12 months, was considered one of public health’s greatest achievements.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has no formal medical background, has offered inconsistent and tepid support for the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and has encouraged untested treatments for the disease.
