United StatesA health committee decides this week on measles elimination.

US measles cases have soared in recent years, with at least 8 deaths reported this year.

A US committee analyses the data and reports to a Pan American Health Organization panel, which rules on elimination.

Ralph Abraham, then a federal health official, said in January losing the status would be “the cost of doing business.”

The panel announces its ruling when its four-day meeting ends.
