What counts
The market resolves to "Yes" if the CDC measles case counter shows 5,000 or more confirmed cases in the United States during 2026. It resolves to "No" if the count stays below that threshold by the end of the year. Readers often mistakenly use state-level reports or news articles instead of the official CDC counter.
Written from Polymarket's resolution rules by the same model that writes our headlines. The rules on Polymarket are what decides it.
