virtually every child in the United States contracted measles. For example, in the United States, from 1953 to 1962, on average there were 530,217 confirmed cases and 440 deaths, a case fatality rate of 1 in 1,205 cases.
I assume they mean yearly...
or a 0.0082680346505816 chance of death...
how many of all cases besides death got the measles more than once ?

Zero.
Unlike chicken pox, measles creates an immunity to contracting it a second time.
