Original Note:
You shouldn't use moving averages to interpret recent events. They give more weight to events in the 10 years prior, "smoothing out" recent deviations from the trend and the current rise in measles cases. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_average https://www.cdc.gov/measles/data-research/index.html https://abcnews.go.com/Health/1st-measles-death-linked-outbreak-texas-confirmed-child/story?id=119208967
