Why it matters locally: While the CDC report provides national figures, Florida's public health officials will be closely monitoring state-level measles trends given the potential for rapid transmission within densely populated areas and among its significant tourist population.
The United States has recorded 2,318 measles cases through July of this year, according to a report released Friday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
