probability · 68% confidence · 18 days

Measles death toll in US confirmed at 5 pediatric deaths to date. Outbreak has spread to multiple states. However, vaccination programs and public health response are moderating spread velocity. Reaching 10+ deaths within 15 days (Oct 20) requires acceleration in case fatality rate; unlikely but plausible in undervaccinated clusters.
