Health officials have confirmed the first case of measles in Long Beach City since 2015, and two cases have now been confirmed in Orange County.
The measles outbreak in Southern California continues to worsen as new cases pop up in more locations.
One of the cases in Orange County involves a baby under the age of 1, ABC Los Angeles station KABC reported, citing health officials. The child is too young to have been vaccinated and remains in the hospital, according to the Orange County Health Care Agency. In Los Angeles County, where there are currently seven confirmed measles cases, more than 300 students, faculty and staff at UCLA and Cal State University, Los Angeles, were under quarantine while health officials work to determine if they'd been vaccinated, the universities said.
