Hotspots include South Carolina, Utah, and Arizona, where cases may be three to four times higher than reported. Falling vaccination rates, now below the critical 95%, are fueling the spread, putting vulnerable populations at risk. A major Texas outbreak in 2025 may have been twice as large as officially recorded, showing how quickly the virus can explode when detection lags. This isn’t just a public health crisis—it’s a wake-up call: protecting communities requires protecting everyone through vaccination.
