SD confirms 11th measles case of 2026 in Edmunds Co. child
By Makenzie Huber Southdakotasearchlight.com 22 mins ago​

PIERRE — South Dakota Department of Health officials have confirmed the state’s 11th measles case of 2026.

The case involves a child younger than 18 in Edmunds County, department spokeswoman Tia Kafka said. The patient was unvaccinated or their vaccination status is unknown, and the source of exposure is unknown.

The department notified medical providers last week to be alert for measles symptoms in Brown, Campbell, Edmunds, Faulk, McPherson, Potter, Spink and Walworth counties.

The department did not issue a press release about the case because the patient was not known to have visited public locations while infectious, Kafka said.​..
