Real-Time Genomic Epidemiology Approaches to a Measles Outbreak Response in Utah

2026-08-27

Abstract excerpt

As vaccination rates have declined, large measles outbreaks have taken hold in vulnerable populations. In 2025, the United States saw the highest number of measles cases since 1991. After Utahs first case in June 2025, the Utah Public Health Laboratory (UPHL) began performing whole genome sequencing (WGS) on clinical measles samples. As Utahs outbreak grew, public health professionals used WGS data to identify clu...
