US measles count nears 1,200 cases as Ohio officials confirm 3 outbreaks are over

  • The U.S. has confirmed 1,197 measles cases so far in 2025, nearing the 2019 record of 1,274 cases amid ongoing outbreaks nationwide.
  • This surge follows declining childhood vaccination rates and increased exemptions, with outbreaks linked mainly to undervaccinated communities in Texas and neighboring states.
  • Multiple states report cases, including 744 in Texas with two child deaths, 81 in New Mexico with one adult death, and contained outbreaks like Illinois' four cases and Colorado's 14 cases.
  • The CDC advises summer camps to verify immunity documentation for staff and campers and prepare isolation spaces, warning measles spreads rapidly in close quarters.
  • Despite the increased cases, high vaccination rates above 95% support herd immunity, and public health efforts continue to control outbreaks and prevent return of widespread transmission.
