Measles are a highly contagious viral infection that affects the respiratory system, immune system and skin. Symptoms usually develop 7-10 days after exposure to an infected person. The symptoms include a high fever, spots in the mouth, malaise, loss of appetite, a hacking cough, runny nose and red eyes. After this, a spot-like rash appears that covers most of the body. The course of having them, provided there are no bacterial infections usually lasts 7-10 days. Measles is an airborne disease that is highly contagious. In developed countries, children are immunized against it as part of a 3 part vaccine known as MMR (measles, mumps and rubella). Although measles was thought to be eliminated from the United States by the year 2000, 610 cases were reported in 2014.
