The measles outbreak is over, so say California health officials.
Friday’s announcement comes about 4 months after the disease began spreading at Disneyland.
A total of 131 people were infected with the measles in California as well as at least 25 others who resided in seven other states, Canada and Mexico. There have been no new measles cases related to the outbreak in more than 40 days. It can take 21 days for a person infected with measles to show signs of illness.
“We are pleased this outbreak is over, but caution that measles can be reintroduced in California at any time when an infected person brings it to the state,” said Dr. Karen Smith, director of the California Department of Public Health.
