This chart only goes to 2012. Before measles vaccination began in 1968, there were hundreds of thousands of annual cases. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/769970/UK_measles_and_rubella_elimination_strategy.pdf The low rate of measles after 2020 coincides with face coverings, bans on large gatherings, and other restrictions related to the Covid-19 pandemic. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-8875/
