From January 1 to February 14, 2019, 127** individual cases of measles have been confirmed in 10 states. Click here to view CDC information on the outbreaks. Though Wisconsin is not among the states to experience an outbreak, providing vaccines to your patients can help prevent one from starting.
Not surprisingly, the majority of people who got measles were unvaccinated.
