00:00if you think about what the case fatality ratio is for measles we shouldn't be having three deaths
00:12with 600 cases that would probably equal out to 3 000 cases so just recognize that our that our
00:19number we have a severity bias here there's a bias in the numbers we're not getting the full
00:23picture here because there's lack of diagnostic testing people not coming forward to be tested
00:27so i anticipate we're going to see that see more cases and because there's just more people with
00:34measles that are not in the official numbers unfortunately last week we actually had measles
00:39enter a daycare and we've been working really hard with that daycare owner to make sure that
00:44we're excluding children that are unvaccinated and then also trying to encourage those additional
00:49vaccines for the other children in the center we're currently at six or seven cases in that facility
00:57but we do have more kids that are undergoing testing so i think that outbreak will grow our
01:02big push over the next couple of weeks is really going to be vaccinations in lubbock really focusing
01:09on getting all of those young ones in hopefully being able to open some vaccine clinics seven days
01:16a week for a couple of weeks um to really increase that vaccine rate
