Two people in Oklahoma have likely contracted measles infections linked to a mushrooming outbreak that began in West Texas, which has now risen to at least 258 cases since late January.
On Tuesday, Oklahoma’s health department reported that two people had “exposure associated with the Texas and New Mexico outbreak” and then reported symptoms consistent with measles. They’re currently being reported as probable cases because testing hasn’t confirmed the infections.
There was no information about the ages, vaccination status, or location of the two cases. The health department said that the people stayed home in quarantine after realizing they had been exposed. In response to local media, a health department spokesperson said it was withholding further information because “these cases don’t pose a public health risk and to protect patient privacy.”
