Measles Outbreak Claims Third Life in PA | Durham News

Pennsylvania is reeling from a deadly measles outbreak, with a 40-year-old woman dying this past Saturday — the third measles-related death this year. Two infants also lost their lives: one from a ruptured spleen linked to measles, the other a six-week-old with a genetic disorder who succumbed directly to the virus. All were too young to be vaccinated. Over 670 cases have been reported across 37 counties, though some vaccinated people were also affected. Complicating matters, federal officials haven’t officially counted these deaths, sparking tension between state and federal agencies.
