摘要
The main purpose of this article is to discuss the definitions and limitations of the indicators used to study the epidemiology of measles in the English-speaking Caribbean and Suriname. In addition, the epidemiology of measles over the past ten years is briefly reviewed, with a focus on recent epidemics. The predicted epidemiological picture of measles over the next few years is also discussed and, finally, the difference between elimination and eradication of measles is explained.
