But he was not particularly surprised that measles had turned up at his school. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Ephrata Mennonite, a K-12 school with 375 students, is among the most under-vaccinated schools in the state. Less than half its 27 kindergarten students last school year were immune to measles, which can infect nine in 10 unvaccinated people.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Good, who vaccinated his own children, had watched over the last 10 years as more and more parents in his school and church communities had opted out. He knew firsthand how difficult it had become to change minds.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>He contacted a local school districtnurse who works closely with Ephrata Mennonite, and then got \u201cright away on a conference call with the state Department of Health.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In neighboring Lebanon County, three people had arrived at a hospital days earlier with the highly contagious disease. State contact tracers quickly found eight more cases in the county.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Now the outbreak had come to Lancaster.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>By this Friday, 53 measles cases had been detected in four counties in Southeastern and Central Pennsylvania, the state\u2019s biggest outbreak in more than 30 years.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The outbreak remains unpredictable as it unfolds in rural counties just west of the Philadelphia metro area, where a recent Inquirer analysis found under-vaccinated pockets pose a rising risk to a region with higher overall vaccination rates. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Lancaster, which has some of the lowest kindergarten vaccination rates in the state, has been a hot spot all year, with 39 of the 65 total measles cases reported in the state.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>And healthcare providers there now worry that measles is circulating far more widely than anyone realizes in a county that, like most in the state, lacks a public health department, and where anti-vaccination sentiment runs high.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Good provided information to help state heath officials trace classmates exposed to the infected students in an effort to contain the spread.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The two students at Ephrata Mennonite have recovered, Good said, and there were no more cases at the school. He feels lucky: One of the infected students had never been at the school while contagious, and the school\u2019s classes end around Memorial Day, so the virus no longer has a chance to spread there.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>He welcomed a pop-up vaccination clinic on campus, but even measles cases so close to home were not enough to convince many parents who had not previously accepted shots to immunize their children.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe measles continues to go around here in the Lancaster-Lebanon area,\u201d he said. \u201cWill that move things at all? I\u2019m not sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Vaccination attitudes in Lancaster<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Pennsylvania\u2019s first measles scare this year came in February, when eight people contracted measles in Lancaster County in an outbreak that expanded to neighboring Chester and Montgomery Counties, suburbs of Philadelphia. Twelve cases were ultimately reported, the bulk in Lancaster.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Yet few people were aware of the threat at Lancaster\u2019s bustling flea markets and \u201cmud sales\u201d in late February. While area libraries posted signs warning of a measles outbreak, some parents said they believed the risks of vaccination are worse than the prospect of catching measles.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>One Amish father, who had never been vaccinated himself, said his 23-year-old son got immunized only because he was born prematurely. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cGod will send you what you want anyway,\u201d said the man, who declined to share his name because he was speaking about private medical details.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Only 88.5% of the county\u2019s kindergartners were immune to measles in 2024, the last year for which data are available \u2014 well below the 95% threshold scientists consider necessary to protect a community.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Several Lancaster parentssaid they\u2019d vaccinated their older children and then had opted against immunizations for their younger children. Others said they\u2019d always considered vaccination the best way to protect their children. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Lancaster\u2019s Amish communities have presented a unique concern for health providers, who have long sought to increase their access to vaccination<i>. <\/i><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In 1991, these communities were at the center of an outbreak of rubella \u2014 a virus sometimes called \u201cGerman measles\u201d that produces a similar rash and fever to measles, and can cause severe birth defects in pregnant women. Today\u2019s measles vaccines provide protection against rubella, too.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Lancaster General Hospital physicians vaccinated hundreds to stop the outbreak, launching the Child Protect Clinic, which provides free vaccines to uninsured children and builds trust in communities that have difficulty accessing medical care.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>These days, about 70% of patients at the Child Protect Clinic are from Plain communities, Christian groups like the Amish and some Mennonite sects that adhere to modest dress codes and in some cases avoid modern conveniences.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Some members of Plain communities oppose vaccination, but opinions can vary widely, and the current outbreak is not centered in Amish households, said Pia Fenimore, Lancaster General Hospital\u2019s vice chair of pediatrics.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Anti-vaccination sentiment has spread broadly across Lancaster \u2014 and is not confined to Plain communities \u2014 in recent years. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>At Ephrata Mennonite, Good said, opposition to vaccination has become entrenched in a \u201csignificant portion of parents,\u201d with concerns ranging from how vaccines are developed to their safety to resentment over the handling of the immunizations and public restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cAnd then you throw in messaging from key health people like RFK Jr.,\u201d he said, referring to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the anti-vaccine activist at the head of the country\u2019s public health apparatus. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Higher vaccination rates at Ephrata Mennonite among seventh and 12th graders speak to how \u201cthere\u2019s been a big shift in the last 10 years,\u201d Good said.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Good believes that vaccination is a parent\u2019s choice, and supports Pennsylvania\u2019s relatively lax vaccination exemption rules. Parents here can opt out of vaccinating children for religious, personal, or medical reasons.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>He vaccinated his own children and recalls how when they were young, he would often try to convince others in his community to do the same. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cI would get into protracted conversations, trying to persuade people. But the amount of success that I\u2019ve had in that has been pretty low,\u201d Good said. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWhen someone asks me for my opinion, I\u2019ll provide it to them.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Tracking cases<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>As Pennsylvania\u2019s worst measles outbreak in three decades spreads in Lancaster County, Alice Yoder said she remains unable to convince her fellow county commissioners to post details on the county\u2019s website informing residents of the spiraling case counts and urging vaccination. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The only Democratic county commissioner in Lancaster and a former nurse and executive at Lancaster General, she feels certain the county needs to do more to address the outbreak. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=949\">A 100-unit apartment building with a rooftop pool is the latest new development slated for North Broad<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The county\u2019s health advisory website is so outdated that it advertises an April 2025 meeting, ironically on measles preparedness, beside a fact sheet that merely mentions vaccination as a \u201chighly effective\u201d prevention measure instead of the best defense against the disease.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cIf it wasn\u2019t for our local newspaper, I don\u2019t know how many people would be aware,\u201d Yoder said.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>So far, Lancaster has reported 31 cases in the current outbreak. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Twice in the last month, potential exposures in public places prompted state health officials to issue news releases. At a Kohl\u2019s in Lancaster in late May, shoppers were potentially exposed to measles, which can linger in the air for up to two hours, over four days after an employee tested positive. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>And on June 3, a person with measles visiting the Lancaster County courthouse\u2019s marriage license office may have exposed others to the virus between 10 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. The person is now isolating at home, officials said Friday.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Neighboring Lebanon County, where vaccination rates for kindergartners are around 93%, has seen 19 cases. Berks and Dauphin Counties have reported three cases between them.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Last week, state health officials reported that they\u2019d confirmed 20 cases. That alone surpassed the total of 16 cases statewide from all of last year.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The rapid case jump, coupled with Lancaster\u2019s low vaccination rates, concerns Remy Pasco, a research associate at the University of Colorado who helped develop a measles outbreak simulator based on school vaccination rates.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Without more information on when and where patients developed symptoms, he said gauging future case patterns is difficult. Only three patients were still contagious as of Wednesday, according to the state. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Measles can incubate in patients for up to 21 days; more active infections means more residents of the county are currently at risk.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Local physicians fear cases are going unreported, and say communication remains a challenge as the outbreak spreads in a county without a local health agency to lead the response. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThere may be many more cases in the community that don\u2019t come to light because people aren\u2019t getting tested,\u201d said Jeff Martin, a physician who heads the family medicine department at Lancaster General.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In some cases, patients may not appreciate why it\u2019s important for health officials to track the spread of the disease, which typically presents with a fever and a rash but can cause brain inflammation and pneumonia in serious cases.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Others may be afraid that if they report a measles case, \u201cthere will be some kind of repercussion,\u201d said Fenimore, a hospital pediatrician.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Could a local health department help? <\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Yoder has spent years calling for local health department that could update county residents regularly on health threats and educate about the importance of vaccination and other public health measures. But there is little political will to do so, she said.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Lancaster, like 60 of Pennsylvania\u2019s 67 counties, has no local health department, which makes it difficult for Martin and Fenimore to get the full picture of what\u2019s happening. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>State officials, who are largely handling the response,say they\u2019re working diligently to contain the outbreak, by conducting contact tracing and hosting vaccine clinics in hot spots that have drawn residents by the dozens. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Martin tracks cases that come through Lancaster General Hospital and its affiliated provider offices. Despite serving on the county health advisory council, Martin learns of cases elsewhere in the county \u201cthrough the newspaper just like anyone else.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Martin said that the health department should give physicians details on cases near them regardless of the health system they are detected in.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>And, he said, while state health officials are responsive to local physicians and \u201cdoing a very good job\u201d at conducting contact tracing, sometimes residents are more receptive to information that comes from their local physician, instead of a state official.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cFrom a state level, trying to do this in a local community is a little more difficult. We know the providers really well and the unique cultural variations within the community,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Department of Health press secretary Neil Ruhland said the state is in regular communication with local health systems, working directly with providers to provide \u201cresources and guidance\u201d when cases are detected in an area. The state operates its own health centers in Lancaster and Lebanon Counties, which have \u201cstrong ties to the communities they work in.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>State officials have hosted 12 vaccination clinics across the region as the outbreak has unfolded, and local providers routinely offer immunizations at doctor\u2019s offices, fire departments, and state-run health clinics.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Yet no details about the circulating measles threat have reached State Rep. Russ Diamond, a Republican who represents Lebanon County, even as cases in the community where the outbreak began have risen to 19.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cIf folks are worried about it,\u201d he said, \u201cthen get your kid vaccinated. That\u2019s your right.\u201d <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know how the state should respond.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Encouraging vaccination<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Parents who have opted against vaccinating their children because of misinformation about vaccine safety have become a focus for local pediatricians trying to halt the outbreak.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The parents coming to Lancaster General often ask about the long-debunked theory that vaccinations cause autism, or ask whether measles is truly dangerous.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In March, two members of Lancaster County\u2019s health advisory board \u2014 a nonbinding group that meets every other month \u2014 falsely suggested measles vaccines can be deadly and raised long-debunked concerns about measles and autism, according to local news reports.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Neither of Yoder\u2019s two colleagues on the board of commissioners returned calls for comment on the county\u2019s approach to the outbreak.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>As physicians race to increase vaccination rates among children whose parents have avoided immunization, they\u2019re also trying to reassure parents in Lancaster whose children are too young to be vaccinated and concerned about the growing risks from measles.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Typically, children receive two vaccines for measles, mumps, and rubella at 1 and 5 years old, but Fenimore increasingly recommends that young children receive an extra early dose at six months, especially if they\u2019re going to spend time around unvaccinated people.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The state is also considering whether to recommend that physicians deliver this \u201czero dose\u201d to babies as young as six months old in affected counties, said Ruhland, the health department spokesman.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Physicians in Lancaster say it\u2019s key to take time to listen to parents, hear their concerns, and provide accurate information about vaccine safety. These efforts can take several visits. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe know scare tactics don\u2019t work. What does work is developing a rapport,\u201d Fenimore said. \u201cThe fact that we have a current measles outbreak makes this more imperative.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=947\">Rob Stone has spent half his life broadcasting World Cups.
