Red measles can hit

From Page 1
“but 75 per cent of the cases
reported in this latest out-
break have affected older
school children in the {2 10
18 age bracket.*'

As to why red measles
have begun to reappear,
MacBean theorized that
when measle innoculation
programs began some 15
years ago a wide range of
vaccines were used, some
weaker than others, ‘‘and it
looks like some of the pro-
tection is wearing off.’’

Symptons indicating red
measles are similar to those
associated with a bad cold:
bleary eyes, runny nose and
cough.

‘“‘Most importantly,"*
MacBean said, ‘‘it (the il-
lness) does not begin with a
rash.””

Incubation period for red
measles is approximately 12

days. Treatment, according
to MacBean, is simple: ‘‘Sce
your doctor. This is not
something to be treated at
home."

Because red measles are so
contagious and can be con-
tracted by simply being in
the same room as an infected
person, avoiding possible in-
fection requires less social
interaction, which MacBean
admits is difficult especially
at this time of year.

For those who have never
had measles or who have not
previously been immunized,
MacBean advised immediate
vaccination.
