UPDATE: A seventh case of measles has been confirmed at a Broward elementary school, amid discussions of potentially closing far more than five schools in the county. The Miami Herald reports that the Broward School Board initially proposed closing about five schools due to unspecified reasons. However, the superintendent believes this number is insufficient. Public officials are now considering closing more schools, with enrollment numbers playing a crucial role in determining which schools may be at risk. This situation is developing as the county grapples with the implications of both the health outbreak linked to an elementary school and the educational infrastructure decisions.
