In this Tuesday, May 2, 2017, photo, 15-month-old August Goepferd received the measles, mumps and rubella booster shot at a clinic at Children's Minnesota in Minneapolis. August sat on the lap of his mom, Dr. Angela Geopferd, as registered nurse Kim Flaata administered the shot. A measles outbreak in Minnesota has sickened more than 30 children, mostly in the state's large Somali community, which has a low immunization rate. Health officials are trying to control the disease's spread by urging immunizations for the unvaccinated, as well as an accelerated booster shot schedule for children who may be at risk.
