US Measles Cases Hit 4,588 – More Than Double All of 2025

The 2026 nationwide count now stands at more than twice last year's full-year total, with cases reported across 47 jurisdictions including New Jersey

Measles cases across the United States continue to climb, with this year’s nationwide count now standing at more than double last year’s entire total.

The CDC reported 4,588 confirmed measles cases nationwide as of October 22, compared with 2,289 cases in all of 2025. As reported last week on TLS, the 2026 count had already reached nearly double last year’s total at 4,410 as of October 15.

Cases this year have been reported across 47 jurisdictions, with 43 new outbreaks recorded and 96% of confirmed cases tied to an outbreak. New Jersey is among the jurisdictions reporting cases this year.

Measles was declared eliminated in the United States in 2000. Health officials continue to urge residents to make sure they are up to date on the MMR vaccine, especially before international travel.

Anyone who suspects an exposure is urged to call their health care provider or local health department before visiting any medical facility, so arrangements can be made to protect other patients and staff.

In the mid-1900’s everyone got measles by age 15, and no one died or was injured. Measles was considered a normal rite of passage to adulthood. It was only in 1800’s and early 1900’s that water systems were atrocious and people had very poor nutrition – and many other health issues existed, that a certain percentage died or were injured (not all, by far).
The measles vaccine was first mass produced in 1963, but people had stopped dying by 1950 – and also not due to any other vax or med. – as there were none for it. It was obviously due to the vastly improved nutrition and sanitation.
It is not better to prevent measles if you can, as the vax itself has risk – clearly causes an amount of death and serious injury, and having natural measles helps to prevent certain heart attacks and cancers.
Once, a cancer patient had such a type of caner, drs. asked him if ever had measles; said no; they injected live measles into him, body detoxified – that is what measles rash is, and he was cured!!!

See dissolvingillusions dot come and the book by that name, from major above-average dr who did her own research, and is quoting gov./CDC statistics. The CDC does not deny anything she says, and they are legally required to post the statistics (used for above conclusions), they just change the links that she prints, so it should be harder for people to access the info. but through a search on their site, it is available.

and book turtles all the way down on vaccines

Bottom line, as Dr. Sherry Tenpany says: Don’t touch any vax with a ten-foot pole, and don’t touch the Covid “vax” with a twenty-foot pole.

Hundreds of rabbis worldwide signed that it is forbidden to touch Covid vax – for any age. No one died of Covid, they died of starvations IN HOSPITALS and not being given HCQ-Zinc. May God avenge their blood.

And also eat healthfully, ideally organic. Don’t have any commercial deep-fried foods – absolute poison – even if person don’t drop on spot.

Much success, and God bless!:)

I don’t understand why people are so anxious about artificial intelligence, when natural stupidity flourishes all around us.

Thank you for proving this point.

As a matter of fact, the virus in the vax is artificial. It’s only if you get the real, natural virus that you get lifelong immunity and detoxification.
Your foolish comment is meaningless. You’re trying to say you don’t believe what was written. So, just call a spade a spade. Writing the way you did exposes you as a PHARMA REP. or just plain ignorant. Only question is WHICH IS WORSE!!

Take your mask off, Mr. Comedian. A mask with not help for ANYTHING except that saliva should not get from a surgeon to an open wound, that is why they wear them during surgery. It has absolutely nothing to do with not spreading viruses.
