An independent commission of experts that reports to the director of the Pan American Health Organization determined that the US no longer qualified as having eliminated measles, a source close to the process told CNN on Friday. The news was first reported by The Wall Street Journal. The decision was widely expected after years of falling vaccination levels and surging case counts, but it's still a black mark on the nation's public health policy.

The Producer Price Index, a measurement of average price changes received by producers and manufacturers, rose 0.3% from the month before and 6.5% for the 12 months ended in October, the highest annual rate since November 2022. The Iran war and the resulting energy supply shock have sent gas and diesel prices markedly higher in recent months. Fuel prices didn't rise as fast last month as they did in September (when the PPI rose at a breakneck 1.4% rate to 6.3%); however, the ripple effects from the recent months' surge coupled with other more persistent price pressures kept wholesale inflation quite elevated.

The Nazi dictator used the retreat, which lies above the town of Berchtesgaden, as a part-time seat of government and met commanders there to plan the invasion of the USSR in 1941. A criminal investigation is under way to determine whether the suspect is connected to the fire.
