What’s special about this? Are we in a period of particularly high migration? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_human_migration

The British NHS now provides translators for about 200 languages for their patients. How many would they need in 1950? Twenty at most, even fewer outside London.
If we use the 1950 standard of need, then they don't need anywhere near 200 today either.
