The CDC reports a 60% spike in flu hospitalizations linked to a new variant called Subclade K, which appears to be a mismatch for this year's vaccine. Simultaneously, health officials in New Jersey are tracking travelers at Newark Liberty International Airport who may have been exposed to measles in Terminals B and C. Media reports are criticized for encouraging continued vaccination even after admitting the current shots do not target the circulating strains.
