(North Dakota Monitor) – Williams County in northwest North Dakota reported a measles case, the state’s first case of the disease in 2026, the North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services said.

There are no known community exposure locations, the agency said.
“This case serves as a reminder to North Dakotans that measles continues to circulate worldwide and in the United States,” said Molly Howell, director of the department’s disease control and forensic pathology section.
