Overview
- The Health Ministry reports 5,231 confirmed cases and 23 deaths since February, with the latest tally covering data through mid-November.
- Only 64 infections are currently classified as active across six states: Chihuahua, State of Mexico, Guerrero, Jalisco, Michoacán and Oaxaca.
- Chihuahua remains the epicenter with roughly 4,436 confirmed cases, and officials say the state has recorded days with no new infections and as few as four active cases in a week.
- Authorities report administering 9,761,372 measles‑containing vaccine doses, expanding eligibility to people up to 49 years old and deploying rapid‑response teams and ring vaccination.
- More than 90% of confirmed cases lacked a vaccination record, and U.S. health officials have linked Texas cases to Utah and Arizona, raising the risk to America’s measles elimination status if transmission persists for 12 months.
