Ratner says these are deaths that vaccines could prevent. And, you know, vaccination rates have been trending downwards nationwide for several years. He says especially in areas like Gaines County, Texas, where the outbreak is centered and where vaccination rates are just above 80 percent, that just sets the stage for outbreaks because measles is extraordinarily contagious.

Well, Secretary Kennedy traveled to Texas on Sunday. In a post on X, he said he went to console the family of the child who died. He said the CDC is deploying teams to Texas to help with the outbreak. And he called the measles vaccine, quote, the most effective way to prevent the spread of measles. And that is notable because in prior statements, he's called vaccines a personal choice.

But in another post Sunday, Kennedy praised doctors' use of treatments that have no evidence to support them when it comes to measles. Meanwhile, President Trump was asked about the outbreak on Sunday night. He downplayed the size, but he said if it progresses, the U.S. will have to take what he called very strong action.

And I should note that we are seeing these outbreaks at a time when the administration has moved to cut more than $11 billion in public health funding to states.

Well, so measles was declared eliminated in this country in 2000. But this year, we have five states where measles is currently spreading. In fact, the U.S. has already seen more than 600 measles cases this year. That's more than double the number of cases it reported in all of last year. And it's only April.
