Technically a 'pathogen' IS measels. A pathogen is a fancy name for Bacteria. And a pathogen is a bacteria that IS a certin disease. Hencforth, the answer to your question would be measles IS its own pathogen.
Viral
The measles are caused by a virus.
The measles virus finds a healthy cell and high-jacks it to create more viruses.
It's a virus, a type of pathogen entirely different from other pathogen groups. There are many different paramyxoviruses that affect humans directly, including measles, Hendra virus and Nipah virus, and mild ones that cause colds.
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
An 'avirulent' pathogen is a pathogen which is not virulent.This is similar to 'atypical' which means 'not typical'
German Measles
Colds, influenza and measles are all three caused by different kinds of viruses.
An ariborne pathogen that targets the respiratory tracts is the rubella virus. Rubella virus is also known as the German Measles. Treatment for the rubella virus is a vaccine.German measles or Rubela is caused by a special type of microbe called as 'Virus'.
The measles virus finds a healthy cell and high-jacks it to create more viruses.
Active acquired immunity - Develops following direct exposure to a pathogen • i.e. measles, chicken pox
The subject, in fighting off their first bout of measles, developed an antibody specifically effective against measles, and becomes able to reproduce this if re-exposed. The infection is then typically killed off before it becomes symptomatic.

It is a virus called rubeola (not to be confused with rubella).Measles is caused by the measles virus, " a single-stranded, negative-sense enveloped RNA virus of the genus Morbillivirus within the family Paramyxoviridae." Rubella, otherwise known as German measles, is caused by the rubella virus. German measles is less potentially dangerous than "regular" measles, except in pregnant women, where it can cause miscarriage or birth defects.Some animals and plants suffer from diseases which are also called "Measles" but which are caused by entirely different pathogens (such as parastical worms).The pathogen that causes Measles is the Measles virus, a type of paramyxovirus. Here's a brief description of it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measles_virus
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.

you can in measles you can in measles
The singular of "measles" is "measles." The word does not change whether it is singular or plural.
Measles is not a deficiency disease. Measles is caused by measles virus. This is an infectious disease.
Measles is the plural form of the disease measles.
