SO IMMATURE!!
- The Antonine Plague, 165-180 AD, also known as the Plague of Galen, who described it, was probably smallpox or measles.
- Disease killed as much as one-third of the population in some areas, and decimated the Roman army.
- The first scientific description of measles and its distinction from smallpox and chickenpox is credited to the Persian physician, Muhammad ibn Zakariya ar-Razi (860-932), known to the West as "Rhazes", who published a book entitled The Book of Smallpox and Measles (in Arabic: Kitab fi al-jadari wa-al-hasbah).
- Measles is an endemic disease, meaning that it has been continually present in a community, and many people develop resistance.
- In populations that have not been exposed to measles, exposure to a new disease can be devastating.
- In 1529, a measles outbreak in Cuba killed two-thirds of the natives who had previously survived smallpox.
- Two years later measles was responsible for the deaths of half the population of Honduras, and had ravaged Mexico, Central America, and the Inca civilization.
- In roughly the last 150 years, measles has been estimated to have killed about 200 million people worldwide.[34] During the 1850s, measles killed a fifth of Hawaii's people.
- In 1875, measles killed over 40,000 Fijians, approximately one-third of the population.
- In the 19th century, the disease decimated the Andamanese population.
- In 1954, the virus causing the disease was isolated from an 11-year old boy from the United States, David Edmonston, and adapted and propagated on chick embryo tissue culture.
- To date, 21 strains of the measles virus have been identified.
- While at Merck, Maurice Hilleman developed the first successful vaccine.
- Licensed vaccines to prevent the disease became available in 1963
What else can I help you with?
What is the vaccine for mumps?
It's MMR or measles/mumps/rubella vaccination.
What is the vaccine mumps?
It's MMR or measles/mumps/rubella vaccination.
What is the name of the measles vaccine?
The name of the measles vaccination is MMR. This is a three-in-one vaccination to protect against measles, mumps and rubella.
If you have rubeola are you protected from rubella?
No, rubeola and rubella are separate infections with their own vaccination content (although they are usually combined into a single injection along with mumps protection.)
What does MMR treat?
MMR does not treat disease. It is a vaccination given to prevent measles, mumps, and rubella.
Is it possible to get Chickenpox or Rubella in 2nd grade in the US?
It is possible, but unlikely, to get chickenpox or rubella in 2nd grade in the US. Most schools require vaccination prior to admission, although there may be exceptions.
Is rublla a virus?
Yes, rubella is a viral infection caused by the rubella virus. It is a contagious disease that can cause a mild fever and rash, particularly dangerous for pregnant women as it can lead to serious birth defects in the fetus. Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent rubella infection.
What are two disease that infants may be immunized against?
the vaccination that most babies get is the MMR jab- measles, mumps and rubella
What is Rubella?
Rubella IgG is a specific antibody which our body's defenses has produced in response to a prior exposure, in this case, the virus Rubella.
How was rubella developed?
Rubella, also known as German measles, is caused by the rubella virus, which was first identified in the 1960s. The vaccine for rubella was developed using a live attenuated strain of the virus, allowing the immune system to build resistance without causing the disease. The widespread use of the rubella vaccine has significantly reduced the incidence of the infection and its associated complications, particularly congenital rubella syndrome in newborns. Vaccination programs have played a crucial role in controlling and preventing outbreaks of rubella worldwide.
Does rubella IgG positive have any effect on newborn?
Yes, the rubella test (igg) should be positive during pregnancy, which means that you have taken the vaccination prior. Negative result (igg) doesn't mean that you are infected with rubella, however this means that you doesn't have Rubella antibodies in your blood stream. If your result comes out negative, then you should perform another test for Rubella igm, positive results will confirm your infection with this virus.
When will you learn whether a baby conceived within 1 month of a rubella vaccination may have any defects?
While recommendations remain for avoiding pregnancy for a period of time after rubella vaccine, ACIP recommends just a four week wait. There is no reason to believe that getting pregnant a month after rubella vaccine will lead to birth defects.
