More than 100 people in South Carolina have been struck by highly contagious measles in the past week, health officials have warned.

The South Carolina Department of Public Health (DPH) said Tuesday the state has seen 124 measles cases since Friday, bringing its total to 434 since September 2025.

The outbreak has forced 409 residents into quarantine and another 17 into isolation. The latest round of quarantines will end for these residents on February 6.

** Among those infected, six people had received both doses of their measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine, leaving them with just a three percent chance of becoming infected.
