Child dies of measles as CDC reportedly delays health alert

Original: Another child dies of measles as CDC reportedly holds up health alert

Another child has died of measles in the United States, and the CDC is reportedly holding up the release of a health alert about the outbreak, according to Ars Technica. The death adds to a growing measles toll amid declining vaccination rates, and the reported delay in public health messaging is drawing criticism of the agency's response under current leadership.

Why now: A preventable child death combined with reports that the CDC is withholding a health alert is fueling concern about the US response to the ongoing measles outbreak.
