ABSTRACT
Measles is caused by a paramyxovirus which spreads by droplet infection. One attack confers a high degree of immunity. Most people suffer from measles in childhood, and a mother who has had the disease confers passive immunity on her infant for the first 6 months of life. In tropical countries and on a background of malnutrition measles can be very severe, with a high mortality. The incubation period is about 10 days to the commencement of the catarrhal stage.
Keywords: Measles, Koplik's spots, exanthema, homoeopathy.
