In Texas, there were 146 cases of measles across the state and the South Plains, with 20 patients hospitalized. The best way to prevent getting sick is to get two doses of a measles vaccine.

A child who was hospitalized with measles in Texas has died, state health officials said this week. It marks the first death in the state's latest outbreak — the largest such outbreak in close to 30 years — which has left more than 140 people infected.
