São Paulo measles update Three cases; annual total 40

Date unknown

Vanessa Casalino reports three newly confirmed measles cases: men aged twenty-one and eighteen and a one-year-old baby. The state total is forty that year, including thirty-six in São Paulo city, two in São Bernardo do Campo, one in Santo André and one in Guarulhos. Thirty patients had no vaccination record or incomplete doses. The State Health Secretariat sees a downward transmission trend because São Bernardo and Guarulhos are approaching ninety days without another case; reaching that interval would mark interruption of those chains, not an already completed statewide elimination. First-dose coverage is above 90%, while second-dose coverage remains below 80%. The full report emphasizes vaccination and retains the positive trend and remaining gaps.
