MEASLES
Of all the c mmu
diseases
aeable d
o `un.
with which the human race has to
contend, measles is the most readily
spread. It is essentially a disease, of
childhood, and very few escape it.
Rarely seen under five months of.
age, it reaches its greatest incidence
between the sixth and seventh years..
The younger the child, the more
sernous is the condition. Among the
communicable diseases of childhood,
measles rank second as a cause of
death, and approodntately ninety per
cent. of deaths from measles occur
in children under five years of age.
Because measles is 'a common dis-
ease, it is generally not taken ser-
iously by parents, many of whom
seem to regard it as an annoying ex-
perience which has to be gone
through, as has the cutting of teeth.
This attitude of regarding measles
as a trivial condition is not justifi-
able. True it is that the vast maj-
ority of children who 'contract the
diseaes recover with no apparent ill
results. at is also true, however,
'that measles destroy Many lives. It
may not apepar that the child .died
of measles; in many cases it will be
said that death was due to broncho—•
plineupionia. This is correct, but the
child • would not have developed
brondho-pneumonia if he had•not con -
other parts of the body. It is also
loss of

observedthat the
re-
sistance clue to an attack of meas-
les seams to favour the development
of tuberculosis, and so we not in-
frequenaily sea tihaid Measles givers
tuberculosis a chance to esta=
blish itself in the child.
This serious pieture of measles is
presented in order to 'cause parents
to realize Why measles should be re-
garded seriously. The younger the
child, the More serious the condition,
so we should snake every reasonable
effort to prevent young children,
particularly those under three years
of age, from coming in eontact with
anyone suffering from the disease.
It is a well-established fact that if
children with fever or acute colds are.
put to bed, and the condition later
turns out to be measles, such child-
ren, because they have been kept
warm and at rest in bed, are More
apt to escape the serious compli-
cations. This suggests• that bed is
lite place for the child who is sneez-
ing, or who has a running nose or
watery red eyes. The condition may
not be measles, but it very often is,
because measles begins with the
sante symptoms as the common cold,
and, in both cases, the child should
be put to bed.
