Vaccination rates for ALL 14 childhood jabs 'has fallen in the last year'

Vaccination rates for ALL 14 childhood jabs 'has fallen in the last year' Outbreaks of measles and polio are now 'likely', top experts warned today as official statistics revealed childhood vaccination rates have plunged.

Uptake now sits below the key 95 per cent threshold for all 14 inoculations routinely offered to children. 

This includes for measles, mumps and rubella (MMR), which has fallen to its lowest level in a decade. Take-up has also hit a record low for the six-in-one vaccine, which protects against polio, whooping cough, hepatitis B, Hib, tetanus and diphtheria. The Daily Mail
