NgoMvulo mhlaka 13 February 2023, inhlanganiso okuthiwa yi-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) yakhipha umbiko omayelana lokukhathazeka kwabasakhulayo abahlala e-United States. Umbiko lo utshengisa ukuthi phose ihafu yabantwana abasesekhondari bahlutshwa yikukhathazeka lokuzizwa bengelathemba.

 UKathleen Ethier okuhlangothi lwe-CDC olubona ngokukhathazeka kwabasakhulayo uthi: “Eminyakeni engu-10 edlulileyo bebekhona sibili abasakhulayo abahlutshwa yikukhathazeka kodwa khathesi sebebanengi kakhulu. Amankazana amanengi asakhulayo asehlala ekhathazekile okokuthi aselemcabango yokufuna ukuzibulala futhi amanye aseke akuzama khonokho.”

 Umbiko uthi:
