""It just means that measles is really everywhere. Infectious disease doesn't respect any borders.""
""Chances that those people are passing it on to someone is very, very low in San Francisco.""
San Francisco health officials confirmed the city's first measles case since 2019, involving an unvaccinated infant under 12 months old. The child contracted the disease after exposure in another country and is recovering at home. All household contacts are vaccinated. Measles is highly contagious and can lead to severe complications, especially in young children. Despite this case, the risk to the public remains low due to high vaccination rates in the city, which provide strong community protection against widespread transmission.
