💨 Abstract

A child in West Texas has died from measles, marking the first U.S. death from the disease in a decade. The outbreak, which began as a few cases, has grown to over 130 cases across two states. The child, not vaccinated against measles, died in a hospital in Lubbock, Texas, where 124 cases have been reported since early February. The outbreak has also spread to New Mexico, with nine additional cases.
