Immigrants are being falsely blamed for Chicago’s measles outbreak due to some cases found in a Pilsen migrant shelter. This cluster contains 12 of 61 reported cases in the city. Doctors cite a combination of resident travel and pockets of unvaccinated natives for the outbreak. Unfortunately, half the people in this migrant shelter have not had a chance to be vaccinated against the disease, so mass vaccination is underway with the remaining residents.
