(CNN) — The fast-growing measles outbreak in South Carolina is now the largest in the United States since the disease was declared eliminated in this country more than two decades
The South Carolina measles outbreak has surpassed the recorded case count in Texas' 2025 outbreak, as health officials have logged almost 600 new cases in just over a month.
The outbreak centered in northwestern Spartanburg County is showing little sign of slowing down, with health officials saying Tuesday that 789 cases have been confirmed since September.
