"Pippin"

City health officials say a Manhattan resident recently tested positive for measles, and they're working with restaurants and other businesses the person visited to alert anyone who might have been exposed to the virus.

Still, the city's health department says the person contracted the disease abroad and there's no evidence yet of community spread.

The infected person visited two restaurants, a performance venue and multiple health care facilities in Manhattan, according to Chantal Gomez, a spokesperson for the department. She confirmed one of the restaurants is Norma, an Italian eatery in Hell’s Kitchen that was already identified by other media outlets.

Gomez said the agency isn’t disclosing the other businesses because all of them, including Norma, have informed their employees and any patrons who might have been exposed.

“The risk to the general public is low due to high vaccination coverage among New Yorkers and there have been no reports of secondary cases,” Gomez said in a statement.

The person who tested positive is an unvaccinated adult who contracted measles after traveling internationally, according to the health department.

“This is a reminder of the importance of vaccination, which is the best protection against measles,” Gomez said.

This is the fifth case of the measles reported in the city so far this year, all of which the agency says were related to international travel.

While the city is not experiencing a measles outbreak, there are ongoing outbreaks in parts of the United States and other countries.

City health officials said it’s normal to see a certain number of sporadic measles cases locally each year that are not outbreak-related. Last year, 20 such cases were reported citywide.

Across New York state, health officials say there have been 10 confirmed measles cases so far in 2026, including one the Nassau County health department reported Monday.

That case, the first reported in the county since 2024, was in an unvaccinated child under 5 years old, Nassau health officials said. The Nassau County health department did not disclose whether that case was related to international travel, but said the child doesn’t attend school or daycare.

New York City's health department said all adults should make sure they are fully vaccinated against measles and that children 12 months and older get their doses of the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine as soon as they are eligible.

Children over 6 months old who are going to be traveling internationally should get their first dose of that vaccine early, the agency said.

NYC Pride, the nonprofit group that produces New York City’s Pride March, has announced its grand marshals for the annual celebration this June.

They include the actress Dominique Jackson, best known for her role on the show "Pose," drag queen Peppermint, comedian Bowen Yang and Bernie Wagenblast, known as “the voice of the MTA."

Activists from the group Gays Against Guns will additionally serve as a fifth grand marshal.

“Our Grand Marshals have blazed trails and opened doors in entertainment, media and advocacy,” NYC Pride’s new Executive Director Im Lynde said in a release. “Their visibility alone is worth celebrating, but they are fighting for opportunity, support and safety for our entire LGBTQIA+ community.”

The NYC Pride March is the biggest such march in the world, with more than 2.5 million spectators and 75,000 marchers expected. It will take place on the last Sunday in June, as it does every year, in commemoration of the 1969 Stonewall Riots, which launched the modern queer rights movement in the United States. This year's parade is on June 28.

The first Pride March was held by the Christopher Street Liberation Day Committee in 1970, a year after Stonewall. It is now the world’s longest-running LGBTQIA+ demonstration.

The event’s official theme this year is “For All of Us,” in reference to a quote widely attributed to activist and Stonewall veteran Marsha P. Johnson: "There is no pride for some of us without liberation for all of us."

NYC Pride said that at a time of increasing attacks against trans and nonbinary people, the theme recalls queer trailblazers and centers the struggle for the rights of "the most marginalized among us."
