Measles Cases Rise to Two-Decade High in United States
June 11, 2026
Why it matters locally: New Jersey's public health agencies should monitor vaccination rates and outbreak trends, as measles is highly contagious and can spread rapidly in areas with lower immunization coverage.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported 288 cases of measles in the United States between January 1 and May 23, 2014. Officials state this marks the highest number of measles cases reported during the first five months of a year since 1994.
