Measles is a highly contagious, potentially fatal, but vaccine-preventable disease caused by measles virus. Symptoms include fever, maculopapular rash, and at least one of cough, coryza, or conjunctivitis, although vaccinated individuals can have milder or even no symptoms. Laboratory diagnosis relies largely on the detection of specific IgM antibodies

Measles is a single-stranded RNA virus that is spread by aerosolized droplets and is highly transmissible. It causes a spectrum of disease ranging from mild in the well nourished to severe in the malnourished or immunosuppressed: mortality is 3 to 10% in Africa. Clinical features—10 to 14 days after infection the viral prodrome typically

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2005
The purpose of this review is to summarize important papers concerning measles disease and measles-containing vaccines published in 2004.Endemic measles has been successfully controlled in the Americas and, to a lesser extent, in Europe. This has been achieved with a high uptake of two doses of a measles-containing vaccine.

Measles and Measles Vaccination
JAMA Pediatrics, 2016Measles is a highly communicable viral infection with serious complications. There have been continued outbreaks of measles in countries in which measles is considered to be eliminated, such as the United States and the Netherlands, and measles remains endemic in some countries.

Measles has become epidemic over most of the world, with an important increase in the number of cases and associated morbidity and mortality in the United States since 1986. The two major factors responsible for this rise in the number of cases are, first, the increase in unvaccinated preschool-age children and, second, vaccine nonresponders ...

Clinical Characteristics of Measles in Previously Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Patients in California
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2018Background Measles vaccine failure was first described in 1972. Over the next 20 years, vaccine failure was extensively studied, but during the last 25 years few investigations have been performed.

Current Opinion in Virology, 2012
Measles is an important cause of childhood morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Measles virus (MV) is transmitted via the respiratory route and causes systemic disease. Over the last decade, identification of new cellular receptors and studies in animal models have challenged the historic concepts of measles pathogenesis. It is thought that

To the Editor.— The elimination of measles as an indigenous disease in this country seems now to be within our reach. By the time this letter is in print, we may have seen at least one week in which no cases of indigenous measles were reported in the United States.

German Measles and German Measles in Pregnancy
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1957For 15 years German measles has been known to hold serious risks for the human embryo if contracted by the expectant mother during pregnancy. Yet, little progress has been made toward control of the disease. Furthermore, no firm epidemiologic observations have been collected to confirm the clinical evidence—although this is convincing enough.
