Más de 200 casos de sarampión reportados en Texas y Nuevo México
More than 200 measles cases have been reported in Texas and New Mexico. Most of the cases are in people younger than 18 and in people who are unvaccinated or have an unknown vaccination status. The bulk of the reported infections involve children and adolescents, and many patients do not have documented proof of vaccination or their vaccination records are unclear. These cases have been recorded across both states, affecting multiple communities in Texas and New Mexico. The reports highlight that a large share of the current measles cases occur among the under-18 population and among those without known vaccination protection.
