Abstract
Key Clinical Message: We present a rare case of vaccine‐associated measles infection in an immunocompetent, HIV ‐negative patient in the United States. This case depicts the impressive rash our patient manifested and highlights the importance of reviewing public health interventions to determine epidemiological links in geographical areas with low incidence of measles.Keywords
