Measles deaths had declined by 99% by 1968 when the measles vaccine was introduced into the US. (Graph and articles: http://whale.to/m/measlesdeaths1.html)
Graphs of death rates from England and Wales: http://whale.to/a/graphs.html
There was a 99+% decline in deaths per capita from measles and other illnesses from 1865-1965, before the vaccine was in the UK.

Measles information that was suppressed. Get the truth from other physicians that speak out against marketing hype. https://physiciansforinformedconsent.org/measles-disease-information-statement/
Between 1900 and 1963, the mortality rate of measles dropped from 13.3 per 100,000 to 0.2 per 100,000 in the population, due to advancements in living conditions, nutrition, and health care—a 98% decline (Fig. 1).2,5 Malnutrition, especially vitamin A deficiency, is a primary cause of about 90,000 measles deaths annually in underdeveloped nations.6 In the U.S. and other developed countries, 75–92% of hospitalized measles cases are low in vitamin A.7,8
1 in 10,000 or 0.01% of measles cases are fatal.
This site includes graph of measles mortality per capita declining from 1900 to 1963.
Immunity from the vaccine wanes so that by age 15, about 60% of vaccinated children are susceptible to subclinical infection with measles virus, and by age 24–26, a projected 33% of vaccinated adults are susceptible to clinical infection.

The measles vaccine was never needed. Deaths per capita from measles was already declining. It was all fraud by Big Pharma.
EDIT: The issue was the same with the smallpox vaccine and most other childhood diseases.
Thanks for the great, simple summary with documentation! Adding a link to your post into the other measles resources I have in my library. :-)
Thank you for this.
