The measles outbreak in western Texas has now reached 624 cases, with 27 new infections confirmed over the last five days.

Nearly all of the cases are among unvaccinated individuals or among those whose vaccination status is unknown, according to new data published by the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) on Tuesday.

Currently, 10 cases are among residents who have been vaccinated with one dose of the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine, while 12 cases are among those vaccinated with two doses.

At least 64 measles patients have been hospitalized so far, according to the DSHS. The majority of confirmed cases have presented in children and teenagers between ages 5 and 17, followed by children ages 4 and under.

The increase in cases comes as five measles cases have been confirmed in Montana. The patients were exposed while traveling outside of Montana and are either unvaccinated or have unknown vaccination status, ................

Montana DPHHS and the Gallatin City-County Health Department said that these are the first measles cases recorded in Montana in 35 years.

Some (possibly still intact and operational) U.S. government agency should(must) take special care to fully understand what is currently happening in Montana.
