A previous version of this story incorrectly said that health officials thought measles had been eradicated in the U.S. In fact, measles was declared eliminated in the U.S. in 2000. Eradication is a specific term that means a disease is not infecting people anywhere in the world, while elimination refers to a specific area. The story also incorrectly referred to the MMR vaccine as a treatment in one instance. It is a preventive measure.
