In 2025, a total of 2,276 measles cases were reported in the United States. Texas has reported the highest number of measles cases in 2025, while an outbreak in South Carolina towards the end of 2025 has made it the state with the most reported cases in 2026 as of February 5.

Measles is a highly contagious disease that can be especially dangerous for young children. Vaccines against measles resulted in a significant decrease in cases in the United States over the last few decades. However, increasing vaccine hesitancy and skepticism have been blamed for recent outbreaks, with the U.S. likely to lose its measles elimination status as a result.
