Why cant you get measles more than once?

In rare cases a person can. Generally though, it is a one time deal. Measles are caused by a virus. After a healthy body is exposed to a virus it will create an anti-virus to fight it. When the person is recovered from the illness they will be immune. This is also how the measles vaccine works. The vaccine introduces a small amount of the virus for the body to create immunity to.

What effect does the vaccine have on the body?

A vaccine contains the pathogen ( a foreign body which causes diseases/illnesses) which the virus is designed to provide protection for ie: a flu vaccine will contain a flu virus, measles has the measles virus etc... - but they have been treated so they are in effect dead and so will cause no symptoms, your body can only recognise a pathogen, it does not know that it is dead and can not harm you,so your body produces antibodies ( cells that fight off and remove pathogens from the body) to fight this vaccine, the antibodies remain in the body forever (unless you have an autoimmune/immunodeficiency illness) so when you come into contact with say the flu your body already has the antibodies and you don't get sick because your body removes the pathogen before it gets chance to take hold.


What is the plural form for the measles?

The noun measles, a word for a viral disease, is plural in structure but singular in meaning. The noun measles is an uncountable (mass) noun.The word "measles" is plural when referring to the spots on the body and singular when you have measles as a disease. So you may have to say "cases of measles" to pluralize multiple episodes of the illness.For example, "His measles were bothering him." or "We cannot handle all the measles cases." It seems you have to throw in an extra word to differentiate between the spots and the outbreaks. Do you have an example sentence?Although measles is a plural noun, it is treated as singular.
