Measles Outbreak in Indiana
N Engl J Med 2006; 355(5)
In 2005, an outbreak of measles occurred that was traced to a student who had returned home to Indiana from a trip to Romania. Of 35 at-risk persons at a church gathering attended by the student, 32 (91 percent) subsequently acquired measles. One health care worker also became infected, and severe respiratory distress developed, requiring ventilator support.
