Measles outbreak in Minnesota's Todd County worsens amid low vaccination rates

Minnesota health officials said the measles outbreak in Todd County, the state's largest cluster, continued to spread as vaccination coverage fell well below the 95 % threshold. The outbreak comes as the United States has seen a sharp rise in measles cases this year. Public health officials criticized the CDC for undercounting measles deaths (Salon).

NPR reported more than 4,580 cases nationwide, including over 1,300 in Pennsylvania and five deaths. CNBC noted more than 4,400 cases and three deaths, highlighting gaps in vaccination rates and weakened public-health capacity. In Washington, health authorities used whole-genome sequencing to link 26 cases to five separate importations from a South Carolina outbreak (Ars Technica).

摘要

Two claims were partially confirmed: Todd County was experiencing Minnesota's largest measles cluster due to low vaccination coverage, and whole-genome sequencing connected 26 measles cases in Washington to five distinct importations from a South Carolina outbreak. There was not enough evidence to confirm that CDC officials stated undercounted measles fatalities in the United States or that more than 4,580 measles cases have been reported nationwide since late October 2026.
