title: [Antibodies to measles virus in blood sera of individuals who were not verified as having been infected with the virus (years 1984-1989)].
abstract: A total of 1302 sera were collected from the cases with eliminated current measles virus infection. The HI antibody titre to measles virus was determined in the sera and the results were analyzed depending of the patient age and the year of collection. Statistic analysis exhibited correlation between incidence of measles infections and changes of the antibody level in population (r = 0.93, Po less than 0.001). Problems of significant decreasing of immunity in high vaccinated populations and revaccination was discussed.
