US officials focus on identification and rapid action as measles cases rise
US health officials are working to find measles cases quickly and act fast to stop spread. In Delaware, officials are using vaccines and contact tracing to handle a local cluster. However, budget cuts have weakened the public health workforce. Nationwide, measles cases have risen to 2,371 by end of July, the highest in 30 years, driven by outbreaks in Arizona, South Carolina, and Utah.
