Minnesota Measles Outbreak by the Numbers: A Timeline

UPDATE: On June 8, 2011, the Minnesota Department of Health declared that the measles outbreak in Hennepin County is considered over. The outbreak involved 20 individuals who were all connected to a child who was infected in Kenya. In addition there were two unrelated cases reported this year.

I thought it might be useful to have a timeline of the measles outbreak in Minnesota. I will update this as the Minnesota Department of Health releases more information.
