“…The change seen in vaccination intentions after the outbreak suggests that experience of measles directly influences vaccination beliefs. Studies assessing views on outbreak prevention found conflicting evidence regarding vaccine decliners reconsidering their decision due to an outbreak [1]; however, research has shown an increase in MMR vaccine uptake during a measles outbreak [25].…”

“…Considering the change in beliefs caused by experiences, increasing awareness of measles and its dangers could be beneficial in improving uptake, with media campaigns being potentially useful. Furthermore, the prominence of the historical MMR autism link in decision making would suggest that catch-up campaigns, new methods to disseminate information and opportunistic approaches during outbreaks could be useful [25][26][27]. Previous evidence supports the use of parental meetings to improve the vaccination process [28], with GPs and health visitors viewed as trusted sources of information [29].…”

“…For example the trivalent measles-mumps-rubella vaccine (MMR) (Harling et al, 2005; Le Menach et al, 2014; Cordeiro et al, 2015) has been highly successful for both measles and rubella reduction in many countries. Despite near eradication of both measles and rubella (Isaacs and Menser, 1990; Glass and Grenfell, 2004; Ueda, 2016), elimination of mumps has not been achieved and could be considered to be re-emerging, despite initial early success in reducing mumps cases.…”

“…All included studies focus on changes in proportion of the eligible population covered over time, or differences in coverage between groups. Two studies with low risk of bias evaluated complex, multi-component campaigns to improve MMR uptake in a local population, although no evaluation of cost [ 60 , 61 ]. One other study evaluated offering MMR vaccine during home visits, but was at significant risk of bias [ 62 ].…”
