It's impossible to find that information out. In 2006 a 13 year old boy died of measles, first death in more than a decade.

So, yearly, statistically, 0.10% children die of measles or 1 in 10 years die of measles in the UK.

Thanks to vaccinations, we are now fairly safe from diseases like measles, but unfortunately as the rate of vaccinations goes down (due to fear mongering) some of these diseases are coming back.

If you are using this information to decide whether or not to vaccinate your child, remember that 200,000 people died of measles last year - in unvaccinated countries. Talk to your doctor and make the sensible decision.
