"Many countries are in the midst of sizeable measles outbreaks, with all regions of the world experiencing sustained rises in cases," the organizationMonday, adding that many of the outbreaks have caused deaths, "mostly among young children."
The organization noted that a number of countries that have high overall vaccination coverage -- including the United States, as well as Israel, Thailand and Tunisia -- are experiencing spikes in cases as the disease is spreading among clusters of unvaccinated individuals. That is certainly the case in the U.S., with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention noting that the outbreaks in New York and New Jersey are attributed largely to cases among unvaccinated people in Orthodox Jewish communities.
All told, there are now 20 states where outbreaks have been confirmed, bringing the case total to 555 cases as of April 11, the CDC reports.
