Measles vaccination has led to a significant fall in the number of measles cases and measles-related deaths worldwide. However, many countries still struggle to eliminate the disease. To obtain elimination, a minimum of 95% vaccination coverage for both of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccines is necessary as well as an efficient surveillance system and timely public health response. Presenting data on reported cases and vaccination coverage in the latest 20 years, this article describes how measles are eliminated in Denmark and recommends, how the Danish measles surveillance system can be further improved to maintain the status.
麻疹疫苗接种已使全球麻疹病例数和与麻疹相关的死亡人数大幅下降。然而,许多国家仍在努力消除该疾病。为实现消除目标,麻疹、腮腺炎和风疹(MMR)两种疫苗的接种覆盖率至少要达到95%,同时还需要一个有效的监测系统和及时的公共卫生应对措施。本文展示了过去20年报告病例和疫苗接种覆盖率的数据,描述了丹麦是如何消除麻疹的,并建议如何进一步改进丹麦的麻疹监测系统以维持这一现状。
