Pennsylvania reports fifth measles death as outbreak tops 900 cases

Pennsylvania health officials said a 20-year-year-old Amish woman undergoing leukemia treatment died of measles-related complications, marking the state's fifth death as the outbreak surpassed 900 cases. Earlier, the Pennsylvania Department of Health had reported the outbreak reaching 903 cases and 176 hospitalizations, with four deaths already confirmed.

State and county health workers had been conducting door-to-door vaccinations and pop-up clinics in Amish communities, while doctors warned that hospitals were straining under the surge of cases. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention noted a second measles death nationwide, and federal data showed the United States approaching 3,700 cases this year.

摘要

The claim that on September 25, 2026, the Pennsylvania Department of Health reported 55 new measles infections, bringing the state total to 890 cases, was partially confirmed. The claim that state and county health officials in Pennsylvania were conducting door-to-door vaccinations in Amish communities on September 24, 2026, had insufficient evidence. The statement from September 29, 2026, that Pennsylvania's health officials said the state experienced four deaths amid more than 900 cases was partially confirmed. The claim that the measles outbreak in Pennsylvania caused four deaths was also partially confirmed.
