CHOP = Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
A child returned from a country that had circulating measles. They were infected while there. They attended hospital. Children in rooms near this child were then infected - one was too young to have been vaccinated. Another was not vaccinated by the parents. Those parents also declined post-exposure treatment that would have reduced the chance of infection. They were given a quarantine instruction. They chose to ignore that and took their child to day care in order to infect other children.
