The rates of measles, mumps, and rubella went up after this study came out and have never come back down to their previous frequency. It definitely had an effect.
And measles and mumps can have very serious complications. I don't know as much about rubella--although I think it can cause miscarriage, which actually, might be showing up in the next few years.
