Figure showing the distribution of attack rate relative to the White ethnic groups for different values of R0 in different cities in England. The local ethnic composition and demographic characteristics change the distribution of inequalities

Figure showing the attack rate per ethnic group for different values of R0 in our simulations. Attack rate in higher in Mixed and Black ethnic groups for all values of R0, and lowest in the White ethnic group

Number of measles cases and cases avoided by vaccination strategy using a model including waning since vaccination.

Comparison of measles cases per age compartment as proportion of all cases and absolute numbers of cases between the reference scenario and an earlier MMR2 (A, D), between the reference scenario and MMR1 improved by 0.5% (B, E) and MMR2 given at the age of five (C, F). The error bars represent the interquartile range across all 2500 simulations per scenario.

Comparing the median number and IQR (shaded area) of simulated cases across simulations using CPRD data between A Reference scenario and MM2 given at school age, B Reference scenario and MMR2 given at the age of two, C MMR2 given at the age two against an increase of MMR1 by 1%, D increased MMR1 by 1% and an earlier MMR2 with the same coverage as MMR1. E, F are comparing the early MMR2 with the same uptake as before against a drop in coverage by 3% and 5% respectively.
