As of March 26, 2026, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports 1,575 confirmed measles cases in the United States for the year, spanning 32 jurisdictions amid 16 active outbreaks, with 94% outbreak-associated and 92% among unvaccinated individuals or those with unknown status. Major clusters in South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Arizona, and Florida reflect transmission in under-vaccinated communities, fueled by the virus's high contagiousness (R0 of 12-18) and imported cases. Hospitalizations stand at 5%, with no deaths. CDC updates weekly on Thursdays; the next report, expected imminently, will incorporate cases through early April, accounting for typical 1-2 week reporting lags that could adjust the March 31 cumulative tally.
