By WILLIAM H. RIQHARDSON
(North Carolina State Board
of Health)
RALEIGH An epidemic of
measles is underway in North
Carolina, according to Doctor
Charles P. Stcviek. Director of the
State Board of Health's Division
of Epidemiology. While there
were only 1.353 cases reported for
the entire year of 1948, there were
2.399 cases reported during Jan
nary and February of this year.
The 1917 total was 5.000 cases.
According to Doctor Stevick,
measles is one of the few remain
ing diseases I hat occur from time
to time in epidemic form. "While
poliomyelitis occurs in epidemics
at intervals that are totally unpre
dictable,'' he said, "measles usual
ly can be expected to appear in
Noilh Carolina in epidemic form
about every other year. The larg
esl number of cases reported in
Hie lasl ten years occurred in 1938,
when I here were 5(1,000 cases. In.
Ihal j ear. there were 251 deaths."
The epidemiologist pointed out
that, due to the fact that only
1,353 cases occurred in 1948, the'l
prest'iil jear can he expected to
hae a high measles incidence.
"Thi ; expectation," he pointed out.
"has pi-oven lorrect by case re
ports received by the Slate Board
of Health so far this year. "Epi-
deniics." he wen! on. "usually start
in December and reach their peak
111 March. April and May. In Jan
uary. 1949, there were 802 cases
repoited. and in February. 1,597."
Quoting from a leaflet issued by
the Stale Board of Health, entitl
ed, "Facts About iMeasles," which
is av ailable to I he public upon ap
plication. Doctor Stevick gave the
following information about meas
les, in view of the fact that an epi
demic appears under way:
"Measles or Roseola is one of the
most common of the communicable
diseases. The name is frequently
confused will) German Measles or
Rubella, which is an entirely dif-

ferent and less severe disease, al
though it does produce certain
similar symptoms.
! "Measles is so highly contagious
that practically no one escapes
having it sooner or later. Most of
I he cases occur before the age of
len years. Tile mortality rate is
low. except in extremely young
children; however, serious compli
cations can occur at any age. Most
measles deaths are caused by pneu
monia. Other complications are
bronchitis and ear infections.
Symptoms of Measles
"The symptoms of this disease
resemble those of a cold the first
few days, gradually increasing in
severity, with an irregular, steadilly
rising fever. On about the fourth
day, the skin eruption appears. II
occurs first on the face and neck
and during the next 24 to 48 hours
.spreads to the chest and extremi
ties. The fever usually fall after
the rash has stopped spreading, al
though the cough, watery eyes, and
nasal discharge last several 'more
days.
"The rash consists of spols that
are raised only slightly abov e I he
surface of the skin. The spots are
pinhead size when they first ap
pear and soon grow larger so that
many of them run together to form
irregular blotches. The color is
pink the litst day or two, and they
slow ly tin n l ed. then brown. About
one week alter the rash appears
the skin may begin to peel in line
bran-like Hakes.
"A person who is infected with
measles can spread the disease to
others for 24 to 48 hours before
the symptoms appear. Since these
first symptoms are not much dif
ferent from those of a cold, it
often happens that such a person
spreads the disease to many other
individuals before he is isolated.

That is the reason whv it

permanently.
"Although measles is n serious
('isoa.se. and there is still no effec
live way of preventing its oceur
lance permcnently, we do have a
means of preventing serious com
plications, and thereby reducing
1 he dangers when it does occur.
"It has been noted that, in 19311,
there were 251 deaths from this
disease. Since that year, there has
been a noticable decline in deaths,
in spite of the fact that there has
been no definite reduction in the
number of cases This decline in
deaths has been due to two develop
ments: The first is the discovery of
sulfa drugs and penicillin for treat
ment of pneumonia and similar
complications of measles, and the
second is the use of serum for small
children. This serum is taken from
persons who have had the disease.
Since the globulin part of the
scrum is used, it is usually spoken
of as immune globulin. Parents can
do much to reduce the danger from
measles in their children by con
sulting their physicians or health
departments regarding the use of
immune globulin.
