  • Measles Outbreaks Surge Nationwide: CDC Warns of Rising Cases and Urges Vaccination Amid International Travel Risks

    Measles Outbreaks Surge Nationwide: CDC Warns of Rising Cases and Urges Vaccination Amid International Travel Risks
    2025/06/28
    Listeners, here are the latest public health alerts and notable updates in the United States as of June 28, 2025.

    According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, measles cases continue to rise nationwide this year. As of June 24, 2025, there have been 1,227 confirmed measles cases reported across 37 states and jurisdictions, including major states like California, Texas, Florida, and New York. The CDC has identified 23 separate outbreaks, with nearly 90 percent of all cases being linked to these outbreaks. This marks a significant increase in measles activity compared to previous years. Most cases have been traced back to imported infections, with international travel bringing the virus into the country and then spreading quickly among unvaccinated individuals. The CDC reminds everyone that measles is highly contagious, and encourages all adults, children, and especially travelers to ensure they are up to date on their MMR vaccinations. Children as young as 6 months old who are traveling internationally should receive an early dose as recommended by the CDC and public health officials. Communities with low vaccination coverage remain at the highest risk for further outbreaks, even though broad population immunity keeps the risk of national-scale spread low at this time.

    As reported by the California Department of Public Health and the CDC Health Alert Network, while the risk of Marburg virus disease reaching the US remains low following an outbreak in Rwanda, clinicians are urged to remain vigilant for possible imported cases, particularly among recent international travelers. There are currently no domestic cases of Marburg virus reported in the United States.

    COVID-19 continues to circulate throughout the year. At the June 2025 meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, CDC epidemiologists reported that the US experienced between 9.8 and 16.1 million COVID-19 illnesses across the 2024 to 2025 season, with the highest hospitalization rates in infants under six months and adults over 65. Approximately 89 percent of hospitalized children were unvaccinated. Deaths from COVID-19 have declined compared to the previous season, but older adults remain most at risk, comprising about 70 percent of COVID-19-related deaths. For the upcoming 2025 to 2026 season, COVID-19 vaccination is shifting to more targeted recommendations, with adults over 65 encouraged to receive two vaccine doses per year, and pediatric vaccination guided by shared decision-making between families and healthcare providers. The move away from a universal policy reflects current trends and disease risk.

    There are currently no Level 3 or Level 4 CDC Travel Health Notices affecting US travelers, but listeners should remain alert to any new advisories, especially as measles remains a global concern and can be contracted in travel hubs and crowded public spaces abroad.

    No other significant, active domestic public health alerts have been issued as of this morning. The Health Alert Network continues to monitor and distribute timely updates as needed.

  • CDC Warns of Listeria Outbreak, Measles Surge, and Potential Public Health Funding Cuts in Urgent Health Advisory

    CDC Warns of Listeria Outbreak, Measles Surge, and Potential Public Health Funding Cuts in Urgent Health Advisory
    2025/06/26
    Listeners, for today, June 26, 2025, here’s what you need to know about public health alerts in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, their Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is meeting today in Atlanta. This committee advises the CDC on vaccine safety and effectiveness. Notably, as of June 9, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., replaced all members of this committee in an effort to rebuild public trust in vaccine science.

    Turning to food safety, the CDC has issued a recent warning about a multistate outbreak of Listeria infections connected to FreshRealm chicken fettuccine alfredo meals. Seventeen people in thirteen states have become ill, with sixteen hospitalizations and three deaths in Illinois, Michigan, and Texas. Tragically, one pregnancy-associated case led to fetal loss. The recall applies to ready-to-eat, refrigerated meals sold under the Marketside and Home Chef brands at Kroger and Walmart—not frozen meals. If you have any recalled product, the CDC advises you to dispose of it immediately or return it to where you purchased it, and to sanitize any surfaces that may have come in contact with the food. If you experience symptoms of Listeria infection, such as fever, muscle aches, or gastrointestinal issues after consuming these meals, contact a healthcare provider without delay.

    There’s also an active CDC food safety alert for a Salmonella outbreak linked to Emek-brand pistachio cream. Four people in two states have gotten sick, including one hospitalization. No deaths have been reported so far. This product is typically distributed nationwide to wholesale distributors, restaurants, and food service locations. Anyone who has this pistachio cream with a use-by date of October 19, 2026, is advised not to eat, sell, or serve it, and to sanitize all surfaces that may have come into contact with it.

    Measles cases continue to be a concern. The American Medical Association reports that as of last week, there have been 1,197 confirmed cases across thirty-five jurisdictions this year. States like Texas, California, Colorado, Michigan, Montana, and Arizona are still seeing new cases. The CDC’s latest updates show that while measles was declared eliminated in the US in 2000, cases are being reintroduced by travelers. The CDC has issued a Level 1 Global Travel Health Notice for measles, urging travelers to be aware that measles remains a risk in many places and can quickly spread upon return to home communities. Travelers should ensure they are up to date on measles vaccinations, especially before going to crowded public venues or traveling internationally.

    Additionally, Stat News reports today that public health infrastructure faces potential setbacks, with CDC funding cuts threatening cancer registries that track emerging threats and support routine cancer screening. This could impact the ability of some states to monitor and respond quickly to new public health risks.

  • Measles Outbreak Continues Nationwide with 1,214 Cases CDC Reports Vaccination Crucial to Prevent Spread

    Measles Outbreak Continues Nationwide with 1,214 Cases CDC Reports Vaccination Crucial to Prevent Spread
    2025/06/24
    As of June 24, 2025, public health authorities in the United States have issued several alerts and updates listeners need to be aware of today. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the level of acute respiratory illnesses, including seasonal influenza, COVID-19, and RSV, remains very low nationwide. This is based on data through June 20, 2025, with no significant surges or new concerns regarding these common respiratory viruses at this time.

    However, measles remains a significant health concern in 2025. As of June 19, there have been 1,214 confirmed measles cases reported by 36 jurisdictions across the United States, including Alaska, California, Florida, Illinois, New York, Texas, and Washington, among others. Of those cases, 1,081—about 89 percent—are linked to 23 distinct outbreaks. The CDC notes that this represents an increase compared to 2024 when there were 16 outbreaks and 285 total cases. There have been three confirmed deaths related to measles so far this year. Unvaccinated individuals and those with unknown vaccination status make up the majority of cases, highlighting the importance of vaccination to prevent the spread and complications of measles.

    In addition, there is a notable advisory regarding dengue virus infections in 2024, which continues to impact travelers and residents, particularly in Puerto Rico. The CDC has identified a higher-than-expected number of dengue cases among U.S. travelers—745 cases recorded from January to June 24, 2024—and Puerto Rico has declared a public health emergency with nearly 1,500 cases. Globally, countries in the Americas are facing record-breaking numbers, with over 9.7 million dengue cases reported, which is already twice the total reported in 2023. Healthcare providers are being urged to be vigilant for symptoms of dengue, especially in those returning from affected areas.

    California’s Department of Public Health has issued a recent advisory regarding influenza A(H5N1), although as of June 2025, respiratory illness levels are low and there is no widespread concern about an outbreak in the general population. The CDC has also issued previous alerts on increased activity of human parvovirus B19 earlier in 2024, with rising test positivity and clusters of complications observed, especially among children aged five to nine and among those with underlying medical conditions. Listeners are encouraged to consult their healthcare providers with any questions about symptoms or exposure related to these viruses.

    On the travel front, the CDC currently does not have any Level 3 or 4 global Travel Health Notices, meaning there are no recommendations against nonessential or all travel for any destinations at this time. The CDC continues to monitor global health events that might affect U.S. travelers and will update advisories as necessary.

    Finally, local and state health departments continue to monitor and respond to emerging or ongoing outbreaks. The Los Angeles County Health Alert Network and other state networks provide timely local updates on issues such as foodborne illness, water quality, and other region-specific threats.

    Listeners should stay updated with trusted sources like the CDC, state health departments, and local public health networks for the most current advisories. Be sure to keep vaccinations up to date, practice good hygiene, and consider precautions such as mask-wearing if you develop symptoms of respiratory illness.
