Excuse me,
how could you find data about measles UK deaths from the “Annual report of the Registrar-General for England and Wales, Volume 70″?
I’m not able to access it.
Thank you.

In fact I discuss this very extensively, in a week's worth of posts, in the link at the very top of this page.

And in for example England and Wales, the statistics tell that measles deaths fell by over 99 % before vaccinating started.

Actually this is an incorrect display of measles figures. In 1912 the deaths-to-cases ratio in US was 2.551. By 1963 the ratio had dropped to 0.085. This is over 25 times lower before the vaccine was licenced. (And remember it of course took a while to get the population mass-vaccinated. After 1963 the deaths-to-cases ratio actually increased for some years, and after this, It settled around 0.04-0.1.

Sure, the overall cases have come down a lot.

So, I think it would be fair to say that the measles vaccine effect is not that dramatic as portrayed by many pro-vac people.

You would be well-served by learning a bit about the history of sanitary engineering in the US and Europe after 1915, particularly the introduction of slow sand filters and chlorine treatment units.

Sanitation had surprisingly little to do with the amazing drops in measles mortality in the early to mid 20th century. The full reasons remain unclear but nutrition, crowding, and probably (in Europe) demographic changes related to WWII probably were the most important.
