New Jersey issued a measles exposure alert for Newark Liberty International Airport's Terminal B after a Hudson County resident returning from international travel was confirmed as the state's first 2026 case. The incident — one of several airport exposure events this year at hubs including O'Hare and LAX — arrives as the U.S. has already recorded 1,748 measles cases in 2026, on pace to rival the record-setting 2025 total of 2,288, amid declining vaccination rates, federal funding uncertainty, and a national kindergarten MMR coverage rate that has slipped below the herd immunity threshold.
