Every few years, we have measles outbreak.

The last episode ended in 2019, right before Nov 2019 COVID outbreak with 150+ infected that year, which was like decade high if I remember correctly.

Measles is highly contagious and transmitted through sneezing and coughing. Many origins of our local cases are foreign-born individuals or imported but this year is a little more.
