What counts

The market resolves to "Yes" if the CDC measles case counter records at least 7,500 confirmed human cases in the United States between January 1 and December 31, 2026. It resolves to "No" if the total falls below that threshold within this specific timeframe. Readers often mistakenly count state-level reports or global figures instead of relying solely on the official CDC counter.
