America's 35-Year High in Measles
During the first seven months of 2026, the United States recorded the highest number of measles cases in 35 years, totaling 2,318 cases, surpassing the total for all of last year, which was 2,289 cases. The rise in infections is attributed to a decline in childhood vaccination rates, as 93% of those infected were unvaccinated, increasing the risk of the disease spreading, especially since measles has become the most contagious disease ever. New hotspots have emerged in the states of Arizona, Delaware, and Wyoming, while the outbreak in Virginia is beginning to slow after recording 177 cases, thanks to intensive awareness campaigns aimed at halting the spread.
