“Alarming 30-fold rise in measles in Europe…
Vaccination rates for the first dose of the MMR vaccine, which protects against measles, slipped from 96% in 2019 to 93% in 2022 across Europe. Uptake of the second dose fell from 92% to 91% over the same period.
That seemingly small drop in vaccination take-up means more than 1.8 million children in Europe missed a measles vaccination during those two years.”
