The World Health Organization (WHO) said the number of measles cases had increased by 30% last year compared to 2016 and killed 110,000 people.
A report from the World Health Organization (WHO) on measles trends over the past 17 years suggests that vaccination has caused measles in all regions.
"The number of measles cases has reached a high level in 2017, many countries having experienced strong and long waves of this disease," said the WHO in a statement. The Americas, Eastern Mediterranean and Europe experienced the largest increase in these cases, while injuries declined in one region of the Western Pacific.
