CBS News Nearly a dozen new cases of measles have been reported this week to the Minnesota Department of Health, which includes one case involving a student at a Minneapolis school.
According to the department, the 10 new cases have been confirmed since Monday, Sept. 29, bringing the state’s total caseload for this year to 18.
The agency says all of the cases involve people who aren’t vaccinated and are tied to either domestic or international travel. Of the 10 new cases, seven are within families who had recently traveled within the United States. Those cases are related to three others that were reported last week.
Another three cases added this week involve people who traveled internationally.
