Original: CDC Ignored Request from States to Validate a New Measles Test

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reportedly declined requests from state health laboratories to help validate a new measles diagnostic test, according to a New York Times report. Public health observers are questioning why the agency did not assist states seeking to confirm the test's reliability during ongoing measles concerns.

Why now: The report raises concerns about the CDC's responsiveness in public health testing at a time of measles outbreaks.
