As recently as 2015, California experienced a widespread and highly publicized measle outbreak, originating from a single guest at a well-known amusement park.

The effects of that outbreak, which spread to several states, as well as Mexico, are still being felt to this day, ultimately resulting in California passing a controversial law mandating childhood vaccinations.

This was likely due to the incredible burden that was placed on State finances and hospital resources.

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, measle outbreaks between 2011 and 2016 cost California taxpayers tens of millions of dollars in remediation services, healthcare costs, and lost employment hours.

The estimated public health costs ranged from $2.7-$5.3 million.
And, the estimated total public health hours ranged from 42,635-83,133 – equivalent to full time work for 20-39 staff for a year.
