Original Note:
Measles is usually mild but can cause long-term health conditions. Globally it killed 2.6 million people in 1980. Vaccination has had a major impact since then. https://vaccineknowledge.ox.ac.uk/measles In 1967, before vaccination was first available, 99 people died in the UK. That number has reduced dramatically. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/measles-deaths-by-age-group-from-1980-to-2013-ons-data/measles-notifications-and-deaths-in-england-and-wales-1940-to-2013
