Beck said, “We’ve been in a mode of just paying the bills and we aren’t improving the economics of our community. There’s a lot of activities we could potentially be involved in, which would help improve the economics of our county.”

Montour County resident died of measles, Pa. health department announces

Danville, Pa. — An unvaccinated Montour County resident has died after testing positive for measles, the Pennsylvania Department of Health confirmed Friday. It is the seventh measles-associated death reported in the state this year. The department said it will not release further details about the individual to protect the family’s privacy. The death has been reported to the CDC and added to the state’s measles dashboard. As of Friday, Pennsylvania has recorded 1,542 confirmed measles cases across 46 counties in 2026, along with 305 hospitalizations. Thirty-seven new cases have been confirmed since Nov. 9. Of the total cases, five involved people who had been vaccinated — less than 1%. The seven confirmed measles-associated deaths this year were two residents of Jefferson, three of Lancaster, one of Mifflin, and one of Montour counties. The department said it is still investigating a reported death of a Franklin County resident in October and has not yet confirmed it meets the criteria for a measles-associated death. To be counted as measles-associated, a death must occur within 30 days of symptom onset in someone with clinical evidence of measles and a positive lab test, and it cannot be due to an unrelated cause.
