Measles Antibody, IgG

Measles is a highly contagious disease caused by the measles virus. It can be transmitted through droplets in the air or direct contact with the nasal and throat secretions of an infected person. Infected individuals are contagious from 4 days before the rash appears to 4 days after the rash onset. The incubation period is typically 7-18 days but can be up to 21 days. Early symptoms of measles include fever, cough, runny nose, red and swollen eyes, and white spots in the mouth. 3-7 days later, a rash develops on the skin, typically starting from the face and spreading to the whole body, lasting for 4-7 days, sometimes up to 3 weeks. In severe cases, measles can affect the respiratory system, digestive tract, or brain, and can even lead to death.
