60 new measles cases were diagnosed in the US last week, taking confirmed cases for the year to 940.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the number of cases of the highly contagious disease rose 6.8% in the week ended May 24.
According to Reuters, experts warn the outbreak isn't over, as the number of cases edges closer to the 1994 total of 958.
Public health officials have blamed the measles resurgence on the spread of misinformation about vaccines.
A vocal fringe of parents oppose vaccines, believing, contrary to scientific studies, that ingredients in them can cause autism.
