Measles

morbillo-1

Measles is a viral infection found everywhere in the world; it is a disease that affects only humans, there are no animal reservoirs, no asymptomatic carrier status.

WHO estimated there were 30-40 million cases and 750,000 deaths in 2001.

It affects mainly children, so most adults have effective immunity. Coverage above 90-95% for many years is enough to see measles disappear.
