| | Abstract | As of July 2, 1994 (week 26), local and state health departments in 31 states had reported a provisional total of 730 measles cases* to CDC for 1994 (1) (Figure 1). This represents a greater than fourfold increase over the historic low of 167 cases reported by 18 states during the same period in 1993. In addition, 250 cases were reported in 1994 for the U.S. territories of Guam (211) and the commonwealths of the Northern Mariana Islands (26) and Puerto Rico (13). This report summarizes the epidemiologic characteristics of measles cases reported in the United States for the first 26 weeks of 1994. | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
