The nation’s health agency on Monday warned doctors about an increase in measles cases that in a little more than three months has equalled all of the U.S. cases from last year.
There were 58 confirmed cases of measles in the U.S. this year as of Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said, compared to 58 in all of 2023.
In the cases this year, 93% were linked to international travel, the agency said. Most of the cases involved children a year or older . . .
