Description: Pennsylvania is reeling from a deadly measles outbreak, with a 40-year-old woman becoming the third fatality this year — and the first U.S. measles death of 2024. All victims were unvaccinated, reminding us measles can strike anyone, not just children. This follows two other deaths in Lancaster County, marking the first measles-related fatalities in Pennsylvania in 35 years. Nationally, cases have surged to a 35-year high — over 3,200 reported across 47 states — as vaccination rates dip below critical thresholds. Measles is airborne, contagious for up to two hours, and symptoms appear 7–14 days after exposure. The MMR vaccine offers 97% protection after two doses — health officials are urging everyone to get vaccinated to stop this preventable epidemic.
