In the United States, the spread of effective vaccines against measles and the continuous efforts of medical professionals have been successful, and the number of measles patients decreased in 2000 as the declaration of eradication was made. In recent years, however, the measles infection has been rapidly expanding, and on March 27, 2019, a public health emergency declaration was issued in Rockland, New York. Along with this, unusual measures have been taken, such as prohibiting children under the age of 18 who are not vaccinated against measles from entering public places.

Against this backdrop, Nancy Messonier, director of the National Center for Vaccinations and Respiratory Diseases at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said, `` If the measles epidemic has subsided, the United States will have measles in October 2019 Will lose its status as an eradication country. ' “The fact that there is a safe and effective vaccine, but not being able to eradicate measles, has caused tremendous loss and upset among public health officials,” he said.

William Schaffner, a long-time advisor to the vaccine problem at CDC, also complained that `` the loss of status as an eradication country is the shame of the United States itself '' and `` embarrassed and regretful that we could not achieve prompt prevention “I am honest.”

In the United States, between January 1 and August 22, 2019, a total of 1215 cases have been reported in 30 states, most of which are infections of people who have not been vaccinated against measles. Says CDC. Mr. Schaffner said, “If many schools enter the new semester in September, the situation will get worse,” by 30 September, the measles epidemic will be stopped, and the United States will be the eradication country The view that it is impossible to protect.

The United States is not the only country where measles is prevalent. The UK has already fallen from the status of measles eradication as of early August 2019, and the British Public Health Agency said on Twitter that `` We lost the status of measles eradication nation, I am revisiting how important it is to receive vaccinations. '



In Europe, measles cases have increased by nearly 120%, and in Africa, it has increased by 900%, or almost 10 times.

There are a variety of factors behind the prevalence of measles worldwide, one of which is vaccine avoidance . Although it has already been proved that `` a new triple-mixed vaccine (MMR vaccine) including measles vaccine has nothing to do with autism '', it has not led to a misunderstanding, and vaccine evasion is determined by WHO Selected as one of the 10 Global Health Threats of 2019 .

WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeyer said in a statement released on August 28, 2019, “Incorrect information about vaccines is as contagious and dangerous as the epidemic itself. If people don't have vaccines, everyone isn't healthy, 'he calls for not spreading lies and observations about vaccines.
