According to the county's Health & Human Services Agency, the case involves an unvaccinated child who became ill after visiting South Carolina, where a large measles outbreak is taking place. Officials did not provide additional details about the child.
Officials said Wednesday that there is no public health threat to the general population. The county is working with the California Department of Public Health to ensure people potentially exposed are notified and are up to date on their measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccines.
"MMR vaccines are our best defense against the measles virus and its complications," said Health Officer Dr. Christine Wu. "Simply being in the same room with someone who has measles can result in infection for people who are not immune."
Late last month, health officials in Contra Costa County confirmed a measles case and issued a health warning after the person was found to have visited several stores in Walnut Creek ahead of the Christmas holiday.
Nationally, the Centers for Disease Control reported 2,245 cases of measles in 2025, which resulted in three deaths. The ongoing spread of the virus has led to concern the U.S. will lose its measles elimination status.
