At least 323 samples have been collected, with a total of 84 measles cases being laboratory confirmed, while 321 cases and 26 cases were epidemiologically and clinically confirmed respectively. Consequently, measles outbreaks were confirmed in nine counties – Panyijiar, Aweil South, Gogrial East, Gogrial West, Wau, Juba, Torit, Yambio, and Jur River.
