Caring for a child with measles.

(Baonghean.vn) -SMeasles is a contagious disease caused by a virus and can easily spread into an epidemic. It is common in children because their immune systems are still weak. The disease is transmitted through the respiratory tract, so if infected children are not isolated, the risk of rapid spread in the community is very high. If measles is not detected and treated promptly, it can lead to complications, and in severe cases, death.

Measles is preventable through vaccination. To better understand this issue, Nghe An Newspaper presents an advisory article by Dr. Nguyen Van Son, Specialist Level 2 – Head of the Infectious Diseases Department at the Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital.
