Overview
- London Assembly health leaders meet today after roughly 100 confirmed measles cases in north London this year, with Enfield already keeping unvaccinated pupils out of school during the outbreak.
- Officials are weighing whether Enfield’s exclusion approach should guide responses in other UK cities if it proves effective.
- Sacramento County is notifying about 130 families after an unvaccinated, infectious child attended an educational enrichment program, which has temporarily closed.
- At least six measles cases are confirmed across Sacramento and neighboring Placer County, and Kaiser Permanente Roseville is tracing contacts from a March 2 patient visit.
- Health authorities urge MMR vaccination as measles regains a foothold: UK two‑dose coverage is about 83.7% per UKHSA, and U.S. cases reached 1,136 by late February, with most patients unvaccinated.
