The number of measles cases reported this year in the United States has climbed to 764, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
.
That's 60 more cases than the number reported last week by the agency, which updates the number of cases each week on Monday. Cases reported by state health departments to the CDC through May 2 are included in the count but cases reported after that will not be counted until next week. Pennsylvania, which has reported five cases of measles as of Thursday, is new to the list of states with cases this year. This brings the total number of states reporting cases to 23.
The CDC recommends two doses of the MMR vaccine: the first dose for children when they are between 12 and 15 months old, the second when children are 4 to 6 years old. Babies between 6 and 12 months should be vaccinated before international travel or if they live in a community experiencing an outbreak. That dose may not offer lasting protection so the other two doses should be administered as recommended for routine vaccination.
