Vermont DOH: Vermont Department of Health Confirms Case of Measles

3/11/2025

"WATERBURY, VT — The Vermont Department of Health has confirmed a case of measles in a school-aged child in Lamoille County. The child became sick after returning with their family from traveling internationally in recent days. The risk to the public is believed to be low, as the child has been isolated from most community settings while they have been contagious. Investigation is ongoing.

This is the first case of measles in Vermont in 2025, following two cases in 2024 and two cases in the decade prior, one in 2011 and one in 2018. This case is not related to the three ongoing domestic outbreaks of measles in the United States or to the current measles outbreak in Québec. "

Continued thread

New to the thread? I take a look at different events calendars for things going on in #NewEngland and compile the highlights. This is my little 'community building' project, because we should have nice things here.

My focus is primarily on things close to home for me - #SomervilleMA primarily and the #greaterBoston region too - but if I know about something big going in #Vermont or #Maine, I'll let you know about it. Suggestions and recommendations are welcome! Follow me or the BostonWeekend tag to keep this in your feed every week. I hope this helps to encourage you to get out and recharge so you're well prepared for whatever comes next week.

I think we should show some respect and say a big thank you to the citizens of #vermont

They were on the front lines sending a clear message about what #weThePeople think about him and the actions he is taking in our name.

It could not have been easy to give up your time and brave the cold to do what I hope all of us would do if called upon.

#democracy is more than voting.
