Measles Outbreaks in Maryland | Baltimore News

Measles is spreading in Maryland — 14 new cases confirmed, all among unvaccinated people in St. Mary’s, Carroll, and Cecil counties — but officials reassure the public that community spread remains limited. With 31 total cases this year — 27 since July 15th — health leaders are urging everyone to check their vaccination status. If you’re unvaccinated, your risk of infection after exposure is nearly 90%. Kids need two MMR doses (ages 12-15 months and 4-6 years), and adults should verify they’re up to date — because measles is highly contagious, and vaccines are your best defense.
