South Carolina's measles outbreak shows signs of slowing, but officials warn against premature conclusions. With no new cases in the Upstate region, the total stands at thirty-four, but thirty-four people remain in quarantine. The state will monitor for twenty-one more days after the quarantine ends before declaring the outbreak over. The outbreak is connected to others nationwide, with the D eight genotype strain seen elsewhere. Officials urge increased vaccination rates to protect against potential new cases during the upcoming holiday travel periods.
