Measles is actually viral so it may be self limiting and there are vaccines that already help you cure the disease. However, this also depends on the capacity of the body of the patient. Especially in children, their immune system should not be compromised so that the disease will not be so much aggressive. It should also be detected early with the early sign and symptoms so that prompt medical attention is given to the patient.

A measles outbreak refers to a sudden increase in the number of reported cases of measles within a specific geographic area or population. It is typically defined as the occurrence of more cases than expected based on historical data or epidemiological thresholds. Outbreaks can lead to widespread transmission of the virus and pose a public health threat.

vitamin A was thought to improve immune response to vaccine and thus it was given along with vaccine. but reaserch indicates that there was no differnec with vitaminA supplementation and without it.

The measles virus enters the respiratory system through inhalation. It then infects cells in the respiratory tract and lymph nodes, where it replicates. The virus spreads through the bloodstream to other organs, causing symptoms and allowing for further transmission to others.

2. Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccination. Measles component: adults born before 1957 can be considered immune to measles. Adults born during or after 1957 should receive >1 dose of MMR unless they have a medical contraindication, documentation of >1 dose, history of measles based on health-care provider diagnosis, or laboratory evidence of immunity. A second dose of MMR is recommended for adults who 1) were recently exposed to measles or in an outbreak setting; 2) were previously vaccinated with killed measles vaccine; 3) were vaccinated with an unknown type of measles vaccine during 1963--1967; 4) are students in postsecondary educational institutions; 5) work in a health-care facility; or 6) plan to travel internationally. Withhold MMR or other measles-containing vaccines from HIV-infected persons with severe immunosuppression. Mumps component: 1 dose of MMR vaccine should be adequate for protection for those born during or after 1957 who lack a history of mumps based on health-care provider diagnosis or who lack laboratory evidence of immunity. Rubella component: administer 1 dose of MMR vaccine to women whose rubella vaccination history is unreliable or who lack laboratory evidence of immunity. For women of childbearing age, regardless of birth year, routinely determine rubella immunity and counsel women regarding congenital rubella syndrome. Do not vaccinate women who are pregnant or who might become pregnant within 4 weeks of receiving vaccine. Women who do not have evidence of immunity should receive MMR vaccine upon completion or termination of pregnancy and before discharge from the health-care facility.

The most common injury done to a victim by measles is pneumonia, which can be severe and life-threatening. Measles can also lead to complications such as encephalitis (brain inflammation) and ear infections. In rare cases, measles can cause long-term brain damage or death.
