All international travelers should get measles vaccinations, CDC says

  • In May 2025, a passenger with active measles arrived at Salt Lake City Airport, traveled to southern Idaho, then returned to the airport before flying again.
  • This incident occurred amid rising measles cases linked to international travel, with the CDC reporting more than twice the imported infections than last year.
  • State officials notified health departments but chose not to issue public health advisories, believing the traveler posed low risk and was likely vaccinated with one non-U.S. Approved dose.
  • The U.S. Has recorded over 1,000 measles cases in 2025, with 96% unvaccinated or unknown vaccination status, prompting the CDC to recommend two MMR doses for all international travelers aged one and older.
  • The updated CDC guidance aims to reduce transmission in travel settings such as airports by encouraging full vaccination and early dosing for infants who may travel internationally.
