Pennsylvania health workers have held 244 pop-up vaccination clinics in communities affected by measles since the outbreak began in late April. The state’s November 9 update reported more than 7,000 doses of the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine, known as MMR, at those clinics. It also put the statewide count of confirmed measles cases in 2026 at 1,505 across 45 counties.
The November 6 update had counted 1,487 confirmed cases across the same number of counties. The difference is 18 newly confirmed cases. The two updates reported the same clinic and dose figures, so the releases give readers a new case tally and a previously reported snapshot of the vaccination effort. The November 9 update says more clinics are planned in the coming weeks and months, based on local interest and need. November 9 state report
The state reports two measures of its vaccination effort. The pop-up figure covers doses given in affected communities since late April. The broader figure, more than 11,000 doses, includes vaccinations by state health department nurses at both pop-ups and state health centers across Pennsylvania in 2026. The totals overlap, and a dose count alone cannot tell how many people completed a vaccine series. State vaccination figures
Families looking for an MMR shot can start with the state’s measles vaccine guide. It says children 18 and younger who have Medicaid or are uninsured or underinsured can get the shot at no cost at a state health center. The guide also lists pediatric offices, community health centers, and local health departments as vaccine sources. Check the state health center directory for local contact details and closure notices before making the trip.
For a suspected exposure or measles symptoms, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises calling a health care provider right away. The call lets staff arrange an evaluation while limiting exposure to other patients. For emergency warning signs, the CDC advises going to the emergency department immediately and having someone alert the hospital before arrival.
