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.
