In recent weeks, reports of measles cases have reached a 100 in the U.S. drawing attention to the anti-vaccination movement. The most vulnerable are children not vaccinated against the disease as it is a very contagious respiratory illness. If your child is not vaccinated and visited Disneyland recently or travelled to the Philippines or Vietnam and displays the following symptoms, contact your pediatrician immediately:
high fever
cough
runny nose
red, watery eyes
white spots inside mouth
rash
I advise you to familiarize yourself with what the rash looks like, if your child is not vaccinated, so you can identify it quickly and differentiate it from other respiratory illness.
