Serological Epidemiology in Measles **
One usually thinks of measles as a minor childhood illness through which we all must pass and as a nuisance more than a danger. But this was not always the case. In colonial America, two hundred years ago, measles was dreaded like the plague, and today in remote parts of the world, on isolated islands and in the Arctic, it can be a devastating disease. Even here and now in the United States it ...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of measles virus.
Genetic characterization of wild-type measles viruses provides a means to study the transmission pathways of the virus and is an essential component of laboratory-based surveillance. Laboratory-based surveillance for measles and rubella, including genetic characterization of wild-type viruses, is performed throughout the world by the WHO Measles and Rubella Laboratory Network, which serves 166 ...
متن کاملGlobal distribution of measles genotypes and measles molecular epidemiology.
A critical component of laboratory surveillance for measles is the genetic characterization of circulating wild-type viruses. The World Health Organization (WHO) Measles and Rubella Laboratory Network (LabNet), provides for standardized testing in 183 countries and supports genetic characterization of currently circulating strains of measles viruses. The goal of this report is to describe the l...

The Measles Elimination Advisory Committee (MEAC) was charged with the task of delivering a national approach to measles elimination and now the goal of elimination is achievable. Several milestones have been passed – the Mea...
متن کاملMathematical Model for Control of Measles Epidemiology
Abstract: An SEIR epidemic model is investigated to ascertain the impact of exposed individuals at latent period (individuals who are infected but not yet infectious) on the transmission dynamics of measles. Mathematical analysis is carried out that completely determine the dynamics of the model. The impact of exposed individuals at latent period are discussed through the stability analysis and...
