In 1960, Bartlett placed at 250,000 to 300,000 the estimated critical community size necessary for perpetuation of measles virus in human populations. See http://www.jstor.org/pss/2343186
This was in the prevaccine era. What is the most recent published estimate of critical community size, and where did it appear?
