Authorities refused to update measures to combat one disease n

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will not radically change the response to measles outbreaks. This was stated by the Director of the CDC Dr. Erica Schwartz.

The approach will remain the same even if the United States loses its status as a country that has eliminated measles, Reuters reports.

In the coming days, experts from the Pan American Health Organization (PANO) will decide whether the country has lost this status. The United States has held him since 2000. Since the beginning of 2025, thousands of Americans have been infected with measles.

Schwartz expects the PANO decision by early next week. She stressed that the agency will continue to work with states and remind that the best prevention of measles is the MMR vaccine.

Health Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. had previously questioned the vaccine's safety. Doctors associate his rhetoric with a decrease in vaccination.
