SAN ANTONIO — A case of the measles has been confirmed in Bexar County, according to the Texas Department of State Health Services—the county's first amid the 2025 outbreak and just the second reported in the greater San Antonio area.

Already in 2025, the United States has reported more measles cases than in any full year since the early '90s, according to federal data. And that record-setting case count has been driven by a massive outbreak that began in Texas.

The first measles case of the year in Bexar County has been confirmed by officials with Texas Health and Human Services. According to a press release on Tuesday, the Texas Department of State Health Services is reporting an outbreak of measles primarily in West Texas.
