CDPH said it has now vaccinated about 4,000 people at new arrival shelters and at the landing zone in-take center.
Meanwhile, the East Chicago Health Department in Indiana is investigating a "possible mass exposure" of measles at a local church. The exposure has not been linked to the latest cases in the city of Chicago.
That infected person is not an Indiana resident, but traveled to East Chicago while they were infectious. The health department there is encouraging anyone who is eligible to get vaccinated.
