Pennsylvania plans to drop CDC help request as measles cases rise

Pennsylvania is getting ready to take back its request for help from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This move comes even as measles cases go up in the state. At the same time, Governor Josh Shapiro has spoken out against Robert F. Kennedy Junior and Donald Trump. Shapiro called their handling of the measles situation a sign of incompetence. Because measles cases are growing in Pennsylvania, some parents are taking action on their own. These parents are making their children's vaccinations happen faster. They are also choosing to stay away from Lancaster County to avoid the illness.
