How does measles vaccine prevent diarrhea?

Children who have measles., or have had the disease in the previous four weeks, have a substantially increased risk of developing severe or fatal diarrhea or dysentery (there is some evidence that the increased risk lasts up to six months after measles). Because of the strong relationship between measles and serious diarrhea, and the effectiveness of measles vaccines, measles immunization is a very cost-effective measure for reducing diarrhea morbidity and deaths. Measles vaccine given at 9 months of age can prevent up to 25% of diarrhea-associated deaths in children under 5 years of age.

What gets rid of the measles?

Measles is a viral infection and there is no known cure for this illness. Treatment consists solely of supportive measures and hopefully the infection is self-limiting. Measles actually can be a very dangerous illness and can have serious consequences such as pneumonia, encephalitis (inflammation of the brain), and can be potentially fatal. The infection is highly contagious and is a preventable illness-there is a widely available and strongly encouraged vaccine (please note-the rumors of the vaccine having a link to autism are completely untrue and have been discredited by many scientific studies). The best bet is to prevent Measles infection in the first place rather than focusing on how to get rid of Measles.
