A hidden measles signal may reveal how large the next outbreak could be
Decades of measles records reveal how births, school-season transmission, and changing population susceptibility combined to shape recurring epidemics, offering fresh clues about what signals could precede the next outbreak. Study: Predicting measles outbreak magnitude via modeled population susceptibility evidence from pre-vaccination data. Image Credit: fotohay / Shutterstock In a recent study published in the journal Scientific Reports, researchers applied and evaluated a discrete-time mechanistic epidemiological model to reconstruct population susceptibility and assess its ability to predict the magnitude of recurrent measles epidemics. The model was fitted to historical weekly surveillance records and demographic data from England and Wales, including the five largest English cities, during the pre-vaccination era (1948 to 1968). The analysis found that the reconstructed pool of susceptible individuals at the start of each year (S0) was strongly associated with the observed epidemic attack rate (AR) in the following year. For England and Wales, reconstructed S0 showed a very strong relationship with the observed attack rate in the following year. These findings suggest that combining routine birth registrations with disease surveillance could support one-year-ahead forecasting of outbreak magnitude in comparable settings. Background Measles is an acute, highly contagious disease caused by the measles virus (MeV). Previous research has...

Bangladesh has lost 900 children to measles - a warning to other countries where vaccine rates have slipped
Almost 900 people in Bangladesh are suspected to have died in a measles outbreak that began in March. Most of those affected are children. Measles is one of the most infectious diseases known. It can spread rapidly when vaccination rates fall, and the Bangladesh outbreak shows how quickly years of gaps in protection can turn into a serious public health crisis. The country had hoped to eliminate measles and rubella by 2020. Instead, the pandemic disrupted routine childhood vaccinations, leaving pockets of children vulnerable to the virus. Now other countries where vaccination rates have fallen face a similar risk. Vaccine hesitancy is probably part of the story here too. During the COVID pandemic, almost half of Bangladesh’s population were wary of getting vaccinated. That same wariness may well have carried over to the measles-rubella jab, with many parents simply refusing to let their children be vaccinated. Measles has its own set of drivers, too. Poverty, education levels, and how often mothers attend antenatal check-ups all shape whether children in a community end up vaccinated. Add it all up, and childhood vaccination coverage has been sliding for years – down to just 87%. Between March 15 and September 6 2026, Bangladesh...
