South Carolina is facing a serious measles outbreak, as the number already reached 646, due to the lack of vaccination and misinformation, with the US at high risk of losing its measles eradication status.
Measles infections have drastically increased since the end of January, with at least 88 cases being reported in the last seven days. The outbreak being discussed has its epicentre in Spartanburg, a city with a population of about 39,000 people, and has spread to the surrounding areas.
