Measles is a viral infection of the respiratory tract. Its symptoms include fever, cough, runny nose, red eyes and a generalized maculopapular, erythematous rash. It is contagious and spreads during respiration (infected secretion from patient‘s nose and mouth, either directly or through aerosol transmission). Almost 90% people with low immunity who are sharing living space with an infected person will catch it.
