A measles outbreak spreading across at least nine California counties has put more than 130 children at risk after an infected toddler attended an educational enrichment event in Sacramento County. The crisis arrives as the U.S. faces its worst measles surge in over three decades — with 1,281 confirmed cases nationally in 2026 alone — fueled by declining vaccination uptake, federal public health funding cuts, and policy changes under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that have weakened the nation's immunization infrastructure.
