For the first time since 1997, South Carolina health officials are reporting a case of the measles in the state.
Between Jan. 1 and July 14, there have been 107 reported cases of the measles in 21 states and Washington, D.C., which the CDC said was on par with 2017.
The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control learned of a resident in Georgetown County with the measles, they announced Aug 11, and said that they cannot release more information on the patient due to privacy laws.
