Abstract
The proportion of persons in Tianjin, China immune to measles was lower than herd immunity threshold with less than 90% of people aged 20-39 years demonstrating protection. Immunization programs in Tianjin have been successful in vaccinating younger age groups although high immunization coverage in infants and children alone would not provide protective herd immunity, given the large proportion of non-immune adults.
