The Texas Department of State Health Services has reported 18 confirmed measles cases so far this year, several of which were travel-related. However, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported 93 cases in Texas, with no specific information about where the cases occurred, the age of the patients, or how severe their illness was. This discrepancy is unacceptable, as it is not normal for Texas to have more than a handful of cases each year. The outbreak at a detention center where large numbers of people with unknown vaccination histories live close together can spread the virus. The lack of information regarding these cases could be a mistake or a misunderstanding.
