Measles Outbreak In Utah Sparks Fears Of Wider Spread
A measles outbreak in Utah has sparked fears of a wider spread, as the disease gains a foothold in the state. South Carolina has also been experiencing a measles outbreak.
Measles Outbreak In South Carolina
The new measles cases were identified in the Southwest Utah Health District, which now has 82 cases, and Utah County, which now has ten cases. Those areas have the highest number of cases throughout the state.
Measles is a highly contagious disease that can cause serious complications. Health officials recommended two doses of the MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) vaccination in order to be protected from the virus.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said those infected won’t see symptoms appear until about a week after infection, and common symptoms include high fever, cough, and a rash. Tiny white spots may appear inside the mouth two to three days after symptoms begin. The measles rash tends to appear 3 to 5 days after the first symptoms. It usually begins as flat red spots that appear on the face at the hairline. They then spread downward to the neck, trunk, arms, legs, and feet.
Vaccination is being strongly encouraged. Right now, about 90% of Utahans are vaccinated. Health officials say those who choose to forego the shots are the ones most likely to suffer serious complications from the virus should they become infected.
As of December 10, 2025, a total of 1,912 confirmed measles cases were reported by 43 jurisdictions in the United States and among international visitors to the U.S., according to information from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Vaccination Pleas Increase As Measles “Outbreak” Spreads
According to a study conducted by the DHHS, immunization rates with specific vaccines have decreased amongst kindergarteners throughout Utah since 2014. Amelia Salmanson, a measles epidemiologist with the DHHS, told ABC4.com that anyone who is exhibiting measles symptoms or is sick should do their best to “stay home and away from others”. They can also call ahead when seeking care so clinics can prevent spread in their waiting rooms. –ABC4 Utah
These outbreaks will be used to blame those who have chosen not to get the vaccines.
