> The majority of cases we are seeing are in teenagers and young adults who missed out on their MMR vaccine when they were children.
The vaccines->autism paper by Wakefield came out 1998, so teenagers were born after that. Correlation/causation etc, but it'd be surprising if the media frenzy which followed didn't affect the vaccination rate.
Also, according to this report measles diagnosed in Europe:
2016 -- 5,273; 2017 -- 23,927; 2018 -- 41,000 (to date)
