Measles cases are in 34 states with North Dakota now the focus
Measles is back—and North Dakota is now leading the country in per capita cases. With 34 confirmed infections since early May, including exposures at the Williston Band Day parade, public health officials are scrambling to contain the outbreak. In Minot, middle school band students were sidelined from spring events, and more than 150 unvaccinated children faced quarantine. While other states begin to see declines, North Dakota’s low vaccination rates and rising exemptions are fueling concern that the worst may still lie ahead.
