Local Measles Question
Is There a Measles Outbreak Near Me?
Search your state or city first. Nationally, measles case activity is elevated, but the useful answer for “near me” starts with current state and local guidance.
15-second answer
- Nationally, CDC reports 4410 confirmed cases across 47 jurisdictions in 2026.
- The states with the largest recent-report signals are Pennsylvania (312), Utah (144), Wisconsin (139), Ohio (121), Kentucky (103). Formal outbreak status still comes from state and local health departments.
- If you know the city, open the city measles answer first. If you only know the state or care about statewide outbreak context, open the state measles page first.
- This is a “near me” routing question, not just a national yes-or-no question.

FAQ
Quick questions about this answer
Does “near me” mean my city page will show city-specific case counts?
Not always. The city measles pages are designed to be honest about scope and route you into the best local answer without inventing city-specific case precision.
Why search the state or city page before the national tracker?
Because the national tracker shows the U.S. case picture. The “near me” question is really about current state and local guidance, not the national total.
