HOUSTON, Texas– The number of measles cases in Texas has surpassed 200, an increase from 159 cases reported last week.

Health authorities in Texas have confirmed the increase, noting that it mirrors trends in other states.

State health departments, in coordination with national health agencies, are monitoring the situation to track and contain the virus.

Public health officials are emphasizing vaccination as the primary defense against measles. They are urging residents, especially children, to ensure their vaccinations are current.

The increase in cases is linked to factors such as lower vaccination rates in some communities and increased international travel.

Health experts warn that measles spreads quickly among unvaccinated individuals, highlighting the need for vaccination.

Efforts are underway to raise awareness about vaccination. Health officials are working with communities that have low vaccination rates, offering information and access to vaccines.

Clinics and health centers across the state are being used to conduct vaccination drives and educational campaigns.

Local health departments are on alert, working to identify and isolate new cases. Contact tracing is being used to identify those exposed to the virus and prevent further transmission.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is monitoring the situation and providing guidance to state health departments.

Measles symptoms include high fever, cough, runny nose, and a rash. It can lead to complications like pneumonia and encephalitis, particularly in young children and individuals with weakened immune systems.
