Introduction to Measles | Causes, Risk Factors, Transmission, Stages of Infection, Signs & Symptoms
Introduction to Measles: Causes, Risk Factors, Transmission, Stages of Infection, Signs & Symptoms.
**ERRATA in this video**
1) I state that measles virus is a "positive-sense" single-stranded RNA virus, but IT IS ACTUALLY NEGATIVE-SENSE. Sorry for the confusion.
Measles is a very contagious, viral infection that causes characteristic symptoms and a characteristic rash. Measles is highly transmittable, and can be spread via multiple mechanisms. In this lesson, we discuss the Measles virus, risk factors for getting infected by Measles (ex. vitamin A deficiency), how the virus is transmitted and how it infects our bodies, stages of infection, signs & symptoms and two atypical clinical presentations of measles. This is Lesson 1 of a Two-Part Lesson Series on measles. In the next lesson, we discuss the many complications (including some fatal complications) of a measles infection, along with methods to diagnose measles, possible treatments and how we prevent becoming infected with measles in the first place.
