AB Measles  is  a  highly  contagious  viral  disease  that  is  characterized  by  a  prodromal  illness  of  fever,  cough,  coryza,  and  conjunctivitis  followed  by  the  appearance  of  a  generalized  maculopapular  rash.  Before  the  widespread  use  of  measles  vaccines,  it  was  estimated  that  measles  caused  between  5  million  and  8  million  deaths  worldwide  each  year.
