Summary
Pennsylvania added 43 measles cases since Monday, pushing this year's outbreak total to 835 across 39 counties.
140 new infections in the past 10 days show the outbreak is still accelerating rather than easing.
164 hospitalizations and four measles-related deaths underscore the severity of the spread.
Nearly 40,000 vaccinations in the first three weeks of September—and August volumes running at twice normal levels—show rising public demand as officials urge earlier shots.
