This morning officials in Lubbock, Texas, confirmed the death of an unvaccinated school-age child from the measles.
The west Texas region is experiencing a growing outbreak with more than 120 cases reported so far; 18 people have been hospitalized so far. According to the CDC, this is the first measles death in the United States since 2015.
