Meas was declared eliminated in the United States over 20 years ago. But today there are

cases popping up around the country. This morning measles cases on the rise in South Florida at Manatee Bay Elementary School near Fort Lauderdale

And the number of people opting out of common vaccines is growing.

It's concerning to me that especially in this post-pandemic world, we are allowing our response to infectious diseases to be a choose your own adventure type of approach

rather than using decades of standards of practice.

Coming up, a new resurgence of an old disease

and how Florida became the center of another outbreak.
