    From another user’s CDC link:

    U.S. Cases in 2024

    Total cases.
    285.
    Age.
    Under 5 years: 120 (42%).
    5-19 years: 88 (31%).
    20+ years: 77 (27%).
    Vaccination Status.
    Unvaccinated or Unknown: 89%.
    One MMR dose: 7%.
    Two MMR doses: 4%.


    So there were 285 TOTAL cases last year, so we’re currently at about 77% of the cases last year. Now, given that we’re only about 18% of the way through the year, and assuming an even spread of cases through the year, they would have only had about 51 cases, so something like 435% as many cases.
