IMPORTANCE To verify the elimination of endemic measles, rubella, and congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) from the Western hemisphere, the Pan American Health Organization requested each member country to compile a national elimination report. The United States documented the elimination of endemic measles in 2000 and of endemic rubella and CRS in 2004. In December 2011, the Centers for Disease C...
Before the introduction of measles vaccine in 1971, measles was a common and well-recognized disease in Japanese children. Seroepidemiological studies conducted before the general use of the vaccine disclosed that measles epidemics differed from community to community; in rural areas, epidemics appeared at intervals of several years with the accumulation of susceptibles, and in urban areas, mea...
AIM In 1997, an immunisation campaign, using measles-mumps-rubella vaccine, was planned for children aged 2-10 years to prevent a measles epidemic predicted by mathematical modelling. The epidemic started before the campaign and is described here. METHOD Measles hospitalisation, notification and laboratory data were combined. RESULTS The epidemic started in April 1997 and was largely over b...
BACKGROUND Even though the annual incidence rate of measles has dramatically decreased in industrialised countries since the implementation of universal immunisation programmes, cases continue to occur in countries where endemic measles transmission has been interrupted and in countries where adequate levels of immunisation coverage have not been maintained. The objective of this study is to de...
Recent population-based studies of measles incidence and deaths in Sudan are not available. To determine the epidemiology and case-fatality rate (CFR) of measles, we conducted a retrospective outbreak investigation in two states in northern Sudan. Of 1144 case-patients identified, 92% were <15 years; 48.6% were vaccinated; and 62% received vitamin A before illness. Ten measles-associated deaths...
Background: Measles has been eliminated in Canada since 1998. Every year, the Public Health Agency of Canada presents epidemiologic evidence to the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) to verify that measles elimination continues in Canada. Objective: To describe measles activity in Canada for 2015 as updated evidence for continued measles elimination status. Methods: Measles surveillance da...
Measles is one of the most contagious human diseases. Although mass vaccination programs have reduced the incidence of this disease, measles is still an important cause of morbidity and mortality among children in developing countries. Therefore the use of sensitive techniques to evaluate vaccine efficacy and level of immunity among members of susceptible communities is crucial. Serum neut...
OBJECTIVES To determine morbidity and mortality from measles and to estimate measles vaccine effectiveness among children hospitalised with measles in two hospitals in Nairobi. DESIGN A review of hospital records (index cards). SETTING Kenyatta National Hospital and Mbagathi District Hospitals covering the years 1996-2000. METHOD A review of index cards for measles morbility and mortality...
