Quick Glance: CDC warns of looming measles outbreak in the US
- A report from the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates a significant decline in measles immunization since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, resulting in a record high of almost 40 million children missing a vaccine dose last year.
- With the increase in cases that could jeopardize the virus's eliminated status in the U.S., the CDC is calling for measures to boost measles immunization.
- So far, 113 measles cases have been confirmed since 2020, compared to 58 cases detected last year. The majority of measles patients since 2020 have not been vaccinated or had an unknown vaccination status.
- Experts express concerns that the rise in measles cases in the U.S. may signal a troubling trend. The CDC emphasizes the need to increase routine MMR vaccination coverage to maintain elimination.

Quick Glance: Women's NCAA Title Game Shines with Record Viewership
- South Carolina’s victory of 87-75 over Caitlin Clark and Iowa in the women’s NCAA championship game marks a historic moment. For the first time, the women's game surpassed the men's title game, achieving the second-highest viewership for a non-Olympic women's sporting event on U.S. television.
- The viewership for the Sunday afternoon game, which awarded the Gamecocks their fourth national title and denied Clark's Hawkeyes their first, peaked at 24.1 million during the final 15 minutes. Nielsen's figures include an estimate of individuals watching outside their homes, a metric not previously accounted for before 2020.
- The audience for the national title game increased by 90% compared to the previous year when Clark and Iowa faced off against LSU. Moreover, this was the inaugural occurrence since 1995 of the championship being broadcast on network television.
- During the Final Four, Clark emphasized the positive impact of audience growth on all women's sports, not solely basketball. Fox broadcasted 14 women's games this season, including three in prime time, NBC featured two, and CBS televised the Big Ten tournament championship. ABC presented five regular-season games and nine during the NCAA Tournament.

Quick Glance: San Jose Sharks Fire David Quinn After Two-Season Tenure as Head Coach
- San Jose - Feeling that his team needed a new voice as it transitions into another phase of its rebuild, San Jose Sharks general manager Mike Grier fired his friend, David Quinn, as head coach on Wednesday after just his second season.
- An emotional Grier stated that he finalized his decision to dismiss Quinn late Tuesday night. Recently, Grier met with players and others in the organization to discuss the Sharks' future needs following their NHL-worst record this season.
- Grier also revealed that assistant coaches Scott Gordon, Brian Wiseman, Ryan Warsofsky, and goaltending coach Thomas Speer are still part of the organization but are free to explore other opportunities. The incoming replacement for Quinn will have the authority to decide whether to retain these coaches.
- At present, Grier indicated that no other significant organizational changes are under consideration, stating that 'there's probably some other things that need to be reviewed. But that’s what we had to take care of right now.'
