Missouri’s vaccination coverage is statistically the lowest among US states at only 85.8%
Massachusetts has the highest rate of vaccinations of all US states at 98.3%
The United States was among the first countries in the world to be declared free of measles as early as the year 2000.
Florida is ranked 25 among states, right in the middle, with 91.9% vaccinated against measles.
The problem is when the exceptions group up such as in a school with a reputation for allowing any exception, and become a huge risk cluster. Clearly that many unvaccinated kids are not normal
I didn’t find a ranking by country but at least one map grouped US as “purple” in the most vaccinated group. I think we basically had a success and called it a day. The crazies came out, they got together, they built on their craziness, and created their own high risk areas that brought measles back. Meanwhile we’re complacent, thinking it’s a solved problem
