Measles outbreak in Maryland calls attention to the need to get vaccinated, local doctor says

Maryland is declaring a measles outbreak in three counties as cases continue to rise across the state, highlighting the importance of getting immunized. Alexandra Yont, an infectious disease physician at Children’s National Hospital, said one important reason to get immunized is that measles is one of the most contagious viruses out there. “For every person that is infected with measles, for those without protection, so unimmunized individuals, on the order of between 10 and 13, could get or would get that illness from the one person,” Yont said, adding that it's an "effective transmitter disease." Maryland’s Department of Health sent out a notice Monday, which states, “The Maryland Department of Health is declaring an outbreak of measles in St. Mary’s, Carroll and Cecil counties and the identification and investigation of 14 new confirmed cases in unvaccinated Maryland residents. No public exposures have been identified in these cases.”
