Five Georgia siblings diagnosed with measles

Original: 5 Georgia siblings diagnosed with measles

Health officials in Georgia report that five siblings from a single family have been diagnosed with measles. The cluster of cases within one household is drawing attention as measles outbreaks and vaccination gaps have been rising in parts of the United States. Authorities are expected to trace contacts and urge residents to check their immunisation status to prevent further spread.

Why now: Measles, once declared eliminated in the US, is resurging in outbreaks, making new family clusters newsworthy.
