Authorities backdate newly reported measles cases based on when their rash began, to account for delays in reporting and diagnosis.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That tops the 102 cases <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/mmwr\/volumes\/68\/wr\/mm6840e2.htm#F1_down\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">reported<\/a> for the week of March 23, 2019, at the height of that year&#8217;s wave. By the end of 2019, measles cases that year added up to the largest annual tally since endemic spread of the virus was <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/measles-outbreaks-americas-risk-losing-elimination-status\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">declared eliminated<\/a><\/span> in 2000.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the majority of cases are from an ongoing outbreak in Texas and neighboring states, which is now larger than any other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.immunizationmanagers.org\/content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Thursday-Breakout-Session-Partnerships-and-Vaccine-Confidence_121224.pdf#page=7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">single outbreak<\/a> since the virus was eliminated. There have been 11 other local outbreaks of measles within the U.S. this year, up from 10 last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While the pace of new cases looks to have declined <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dshs.texas.gov\/news-alerts\/measles-outbreak-2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">in Texas<\/a>, officials caution it is too soon to say whether the outbreak is truly ending.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We look at the trends over time and we&#8217;d want to see several weeks of decline. New cases sometimes get reported to public health up to a week after someone was tested, especially if the test was done at a commercial lab,&#8221; Lara Anton, a spokesperson for the Texas Department of State Health Services, told CBS News in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Anton said authorities are also watching to see if travel from the Easter holiday weekend last month will result in an increase.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Cases from travel that weekend would likely start to be reported in the next week or two,&#8221; Anton said.<\/p>\n<p>This year&#8217;s tally of cases is <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/measles-cases-missed-in-texas-outbreak-cdc-says\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">likely an undercount<\/a><\/span>, officials and experts have said, citing anecdotes of unreported infections. The unusually high severity of this year&#8217;s wave also suggests many mild cases of spread are going undiagnosed.<\/p>\n<p>For example, authorities in Canada <a href=\"https:\/\/health-infobase.canada.ca\/measles-rubella\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">have confirmed<\/a> more than 1,000 measles cases so far this year, after record outbreaks there. The U.S. has tallied at least 935 this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/measles\/data-research\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">according to<\/a> the CDC.<\/p>\n<p>In Canada, 7% of cases have resulted in hospitalizations, less than the 13% of cases that have resulted in hospitalizations in the U.S. Three Americans have also died from measles so far this year, compared to none in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n        <\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/alexander-tin\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Alexander  Tin<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Alexander Tin is a digital reporter for CBS News based in the Washington, D.C. bureau.
