Rubella is also called German measles, while rubeola is regular measles. The biggest difference between the two is that rubella is considered to be a milder disease that only lasts around three days. Rubeola can become a serious illness that lasts several days and can cause other serious permanent complications.
Both Measles and Germal Measles (Rubella) are viruses. With German Measles you can get a blotchy red rash which comes and goes and usually disappears altogether after 2 days. You can sometimes suffer with a light cold prior to the rash appearing. German Measles can be dangerous for pregnant women who have no immunity to the virus. The infection period is usually a week before the rash until a week after it has disappeared. Measles has a mild upper respitatory affect. You can get a rash of spots, very high temperature which can last up to 4 days, cough, severe conjunctivitis and possibly encephalitis. The incubation period is 4 to 12 days and you can remain infectious for 3 to 5 weeks after rash.
Normal measles is caused by the Rubeola virus. You most likely got vaccinated for it as a child - it's a part of the MMR (measles mumps rubella) vaccine. Make sure not to confuse Rubeola (normal measles) with Rubella (German measles) as they're slightly different viruses :)Does anybody know because I really need to know for my science stuff and I don't have a clue! Help please. Many Thanks.chocolate

The pathognomonic sign of measles ( Rubeola, 7-day measles) is the KOPLIK'S SPOTS. Koplik's Spots are lesions found in the inner cheek 1 to 2 days before the rashes appear on the skin.
