During January 1–July 31, 2008, 131 measles cases werereported to CDC from 15 states and the District of Columbia(DC)….

Among the 131 cases, 17 (13%) were importations: threeeach from Italy and Switzerland; two each from Belgium, India,and Israel; and one each from China, Germany, Pakistan, thePhilippines, and Russia…..

Nine of the importations were in U.S. residents who had traveled abroad, and eight were in foreign visitors. An additional 99 (76%) of the 131 cases were linked epidemiologically to importationsor had virologic evidence of importation….
