Measles seroprevalence by birth cohort across the lifespan: a population-based, cross-sectional serosurvey in British Columbia, Canada
Our measles serosurvey findings inform vaccine coverage and complement other case-based surveillance indicating robust population-level immunity outside of unvaccinated clusters or communities. In addition to showing age-related antibody decline, serosurveillance provides insights into potential cohort effects that may have implications for vaccination programs.
