Georgia DPH officials have confirmed measles in an unvaccinated Bryan County resident. (Bryan County is located south of Savannah.) There is no history of international travel, but the individual recently traveled out of state. DPH is notifying individuals who may have been exposed to the virus and are at increased risk of developing measles.

This is Georgia’s second confirmed measles case in 2026. The first case was in a baby too young to receive routine measles vaccination. The baby, who lives in the Coastal Health District, acquired the virus while traveling internationally.

The MMR vaccine is safe and highly effective in preventing measles. https://ow.ly/ul6t50YkqFr
