Background: To understand current and mitigate future measles mortality burden, it is critical to have robust estimates of measles case fatality. Estimates of measles case fatality ratios (CFR) that are age-, location-, and time-specific are essential to capture variation in underlying population-level factors--such as vaccination coverage and measles incidence--that contribute systematically to increases or decreases in case fatality. In this study, we updated estimates of measles CFR by expand...
