10 分钟Hey listeners, Rachel here.
It's been a year since I started hosting Science Quickly,
and because of that, I have a quick favor to ask.
We would love to get your feedback on how Science Quickly has been doing and how you might like to see us evolve.
That's why we're putting out a listener survey.
If you complete it this month, you'll be eligible to win some awesome Scientific American swag.
You can find the survey at sciencequickly.com slash survey,
or we'll also have that link in our show notes.
It would mean a lot to us if you took a few minutes to complete the survey.
We promise it won't take too much of your time.
Again, you can find the survey at sciencequickly.com.
Thanks in advance for letting us know your thoughts.
For Scientific American Science Quickly, I'm Rachel Feltman.
More than 1,000 cases of measles have been confirmed in the U.S. since late January,
including a cluster in West Texas that has caused one of the worst outbreaks in recent memory.
These outbreaks are occurring even
though measles was technically eliminated in the U.S. back in 2000.
Here to explain what that means and why that status could be at risk is Lauren Young,
Associate Editor for Health and Medicine at Scientific American.
Lauren, thanks so much for coming on to chat with us today.
