I'm shocked!

I really expected the CDC would continue doing everything possible to avoid documenting measles outbreals or acknowledging measles deaths until after the November elections.

About a month ago someone with measels entered the NICU of CHOP in Philly. PA has an outsized number of cases compared to other states. Hopefully the probe will create public data that can be quickly used
