Keywords:
Vaccination, immunoglobulin, monovaccine, serological methods, rashes..Abstract
Measles is a widespread acute infectious disease, occurring mainly in children and characterized by fever, catarrhal inflammation of the mucous membranes of the nose, eyes and throat and the appearance of a blotchy rash on the skin. Measles is one of the most contagious diseases known today. This infection is characterized by almost 100% susceptibility - that is, if a person who has not previously had measles and has not been vaccinated comes into contact with a person with measles, the probability of getting sick is extremely high. That is why it is so important to strictly adhere to vaccination schedules and carry out anti-epidemic measures in the source of infection.
