In response to a measles outbreak in Scotland, there was a schools-based campaign providing measles and rubella combined vaccination in 1994-95 and it was estimated that 90.4% of the target population were vaccinated at that time.No information has been collected centrally on single vaccinations that may have been provided by general practitioners privately, using imported vaccines.Information is available by health board only in regard to MMR from 1995.Table 1 (Numbers of children receiving MMR by 24 months of age in Scotland from 1989 to 2000 and by health board from 1995 to 2000):198919901991199219931994Scotland191,027116,20680,07367,18568,86859,222 199519961997199819992000Scotland58,61255,63455,78154,81354,10053,620Health Board199519961997199819992000Argyll & Clyde4,9324,5814,7624,6524,4984,502Ayrshire & Arran4,2253,9023,6833,8513,8033,760Borders1,0301,0941,0841,0931,0261,030Dumfries & Galloway1,6181,5661,5541,5361,4831,515Fife4,0203,6773,7753,6153,5993,592Forth Valley3,1843,0403,1132,9273,0503,049Grampian6,1676,2086,0755,6885,5875,630Greater Glasgow10,5299,8189,8189,7929,4749,356Highland2,2762,1912,1912,1722,0642,131Lanarkshire6,6916,3836,4486,2876,2886,193Lothian8,7448,4148,4618,3878,4298,186Orkney242229231219215203Shetland293309298272256254Tayside4,3963,9384,0124,0304,0743,991Western Isles265284276292254228Table 2 (Numbers of children receiving measles vaccine from 1979 to 1988 in Scotland) 1979198019811982198319841985198619871988Scotland36,71839,56041,42943,61045,37055,93453,72753,75761,31277,725Table 3 (Numbers of girls receiving rubella vaccine through the schools programme in Scotland from 1979 to 1994)19791980198119821983198419851986Scotland42,54837,30135,93034,97435,04035,52332,14229,071 19871988198919901991199219931994Scotland2740425,57524,29220,75020,88320,73121,28918,626 S1W-13626
