Health officials warn of a potential measles outbreak at Washington Dulles International Airport following a confirmed case in a passenger who transited Concourse A and used airport and public transport on June 8th. Travelers who were at the airport or on the specified transport routes that day are urged to check their vaccination status. This new case adds to the rising number of measles cases nationwide; Texas has experienced nearly 800 cases, including two fatalities, amidst declining vaccination rates across the US, increasing vulnerability to further outbreaks.
