MEASLES UPDATE FOR IOWA

As of August 21, here have been a total of 16 cases of measles reported in Iowa in 2026. (In 2025 there were a total of 9 cases in Iowa.) While the state has not named the counties, areas of potential exposure are around the Des Moines area (Clive, West Des Moines), Bloomfield and Ottumwa.

Some things to consider if you have traveled:
Incubation period is 21 days.
Symptoms include a High fever (may be 104 or more), cough, red eyes, runny nose, small bluish spots surrounded by red region on the inside of the cheeks.
RASH: 3-5 days AFTER fever onset. Red blotchy rash begins on face at the hairline and progresses downward and outward to hands and feet.

What to do if you think your child might have measles:
Call your health care provider, tell them your child may have measles. They will instruct you on how to be seen safely.
You should not sit in a waiting room or come through the main entrance because if you do have measles anyone in that area who is not vaccinated (like babies) will get sick.
Keep your child home until they are seen by a health care provider.

Jenifer Cleveland walked into Luxe Medspa in Wortham, Texas on July 10, 2023, for what she believed was a routine wellness treatment.
Twenty-seven minutes later, she lost consciousness.
She never went home.
At 11:04 a.m., Jenifer began receiving an IV infusion containing vitamins and electrolytes — the kind of treatment thousands of Americans get at med spas every single week. By 11:31 a.m., she was in cardiac arrest.
Investigators now say what killed her was a fatal overdose of potassium chloride — pumped into her body at a rate that was never safe, administered by someone who was never legally qualified to do it.
And here is where this story turns from tragedy into something far more disturbing.
Amber Johnson, the owner of Luxe Medspa, did not hold a medical license. According to investigators, she was not legally permitted to administer the treatments she was offering to paying customers. Texas law restricts ownership of medical practices to licensed physicians — a law authorities allege Johnson violated every single day she kept those doors open.
To get around it, court records allege she used the medical license of anesthesiologist Dr. Michael Gallagher — who prosecutors say failed to supervise her and allowed his credentials to be used to obtain the very drugs that killed Jenifer Cleveland.
Johnson turned herself in on April 28th. Gallagher was arrested the following day.
Between them, they now face charges of felony murder, manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, practicing medicine without a license, tampering with evidence, and multiple counts of delivering dangerous drugs.
Jenifer Cleveland was 47 years old. She went to a med spa for a wellness treatment and was dead before lunchtime — because the person holding the IV line was not qualified to hold it, and the doctor whose name was on the license was nowhere in the room.
