"The 107 cases reported to CDC have been since January 2018 across 21 states, but they are not one unified outbreak".

According to the CDC, there have already been 107 measles cases reported this year.

Most of the people who got measles had not been vaccinated, the CDC said.

In 2017, the CDC reported 118 total cases, and the year before that 86 total cases were reported.

Measles is a virus that spreads through the air and by coming into direct contact with someone who has it. Symptoms show up in 10 to 14 days after exposure. Some symptoms are a high fever, cough, runny nose and red eyes, followed by a rash that typically starts on the face and spreads to the rest of the body.

Measles is considered highly contagious and can be spread through coughs and sneezes. It was the greatest number of measles cases the country had seen since the disease was eliminated in 2000. Within about 5 days, it fades in the order it appeared. A person can contract measles "just by being in a room where a person with measles has been, up to two hours after that person is gone", the CDC said.

Measles cases continue to pop up in the United States. Additionally, some doctors have never seen a case of measles in their lifetime. She said several studies have debunked any connection between the measles vaccination and autism.

The measles vaccine - known as the MMR or measles, mumps and rubella vaccine - is very effective. MMR vaccine is one of the required school immunizations in Indiana.
