Measles resurgence in Europe and US as vaccination rates decline, Gates warns

Bill Gates states that measles eradication is no longer a realistic goal due to falling vaccination coverage in wealthy countries, where rates below 95% enable renewed outbreaks. The disease, which once killed two million children annually, is spreading again in Europe and the US. This marks a reversal from prior eradication expectations and signals a public health setback with potential economic and social costs.
