Governor Kathy Hochul declared a state disaster emergency in New York due to a rising number of measles cases. The state has confirmed 108 cases, with 92 occurring since July 15. The executive order allows a broader range of health professionals, including paramedics, pharmacists, and nurses, to administer vaccines and order testing across the state. The highest concentrations of cases reported are in Otsego County, Seneca County, and Steuben County.
