German Measles
(Rubella)
German Measles (Rubella)
German Measles Virus
• Icosahedral
shape
• Contains RNA
German Measles Symptoms
• Rubella comes from
the Latin words for
“little red”
• Creates dense groups
of small skin rash
• Produces swollen
lymph nodes, runny
nose, and fever
German Measles Transmission
• Spread through
respiratory
droplets from
coughing and
sneezing
• Also spread
through body
secretions and
excretions
• Rubella is sometime called German Measles
or 3-day Measles.
• The synonym "3-day measles" derives from
the typical course of rubella exanthema that
starts initially on the face and neck and
spreads centrifugally to the trunk and
extremities within 24 hours.
• It then begins to fade on the face on the second
day and disappears throughout the body by
the end of the third day.
• It is a generally mild disease caused by the
rubella virus.
• Agent – RNA virus (Togo virus family),
Genus Rubivirus.
• Source of infection – Respiratory secretion
• Host -3-10 yrs
• Immunity –life long
• Environmental factors –winter and spring
season
• Transmission – droplet, vertical transmission
• I.P – 2-3 weeks average 18 days
• Eye pain on lateral and upward eye
movement (a particularly troublesome
complaint)
• Conjunctivitis
• Sore throat
• Headache
• General body aches
• Low-grade fever
• Chills
• Anorexia
• Nausea
• Tender lymphadenopathy (particularly
posterior auricular and suboccipital lymph
nodes)
• Forchheimer sign (an enanthem observed in
20% of patients with rubella during the
prodromal period; can be during the initial
phase of the exanthem;
consists of pinpoint or larger petechiae
that usually occur on the soft palate)
Temperature
• Fever is usually not higher than 38.5°C
(101.5°F).
Lymph nodes
• Enlarged posterior auricular and suboccipital
lymph nodes are usually found on physical
examination.
Mouth
• The Forchheimer sign may still be present on
the soft palate.

chance
• 13–26 weeks after conception - 23%
chance
• Infants are not generally affected if

Smallpox
Smallpox Virus
• Variola virus
• Contains DNA
Smallpox Symptoms
• Pox comes from the
Latin word for “spotted”
• Extensive rash
• High fever, malaise,
and body-aches
• Elevated, fluid-filled,
cutaneous vesicles
Stages of Smallpox
Rash Distribution
Smallpox
Complications of
smallpox include
bacterial super-
infections of the skin
and organs,
pneumonia, sepsis,
arthritis, keratitis, and
encephalitis.
Chicken Pox
• Varicella is an acute infectious disease. It is caused by
varicella-zoster virus (VZV),
a DNA virus is a member of the herpesvirus group.
• After the primary infection, VZV stays in the body (in
the sensory nerve ganglia) as a latent infection.
• Primary infection with VZV causes varicella.
Reactivation of latent infection causes herpes zoster
(shingles).
Description
Description
• It is very contagious and usually occurs
during childhood (normally 5-9) , but you
can get it at any time in your life.
• Incubation Period
The incubation period is 14 to 16 days after
exposure to a varicella or a herpes zoster
rash, with a range of 10 to 21 days.
• The most common complications :
• bacterial infections of the skin and soft tissues in
children
• pneumonia in adults
• Severe complications
include septicemia,
toxic shock syndrome,
necrotizing fasciitis,
osteomyelitis, bacterial pneumonia, and septic
arthritis.
• cerebellar ataxia, encephalitis, viral pneumonia,
and hemorrhagic conditions.
Background
• Infects about 70% of all children by 18.
• The rash and fever last for about five days.
• Most children handle the chicken pox well
and recover without any problem within a
week.
Background continued
• Infants less than 6 months old are usually
protected from their mother carries the
antibody to this virus.
• A healthy child less then 13 years old
generally has a very mild illness that
insures lifelong immunity .
• It is unusual to have chicken pox more
than once.
Symptoms
• Chicken pox often begins with a small
fever, body aches and loss of appetite.
• Within 1or 2 days, the rash appears,
normally starting on the chest or back.
• At first the rash begins as red spots which
then form blisters and spreads to the rest
of the body.
Symptoms continued
• The blisters open and form a scab within a
few days.
• The rash can continue to break out for 4-5
days as older lesions crust and heal.
• Itching can accompany the rash along with
fever, swollen lymph nodes, sore throat
and general body aches.
Itchy and Scratchy
Prevention
Children between 12 and 18 months should
receive
A dose of chickenpox vaccine,
Varicella-zoster immune globulin.
20 states have passed legislation requiring
the chickenpox vaccine for child care and
school entry.
Healthy children older than 13, and
adults who have no history of
chickenpox and have never been
immunized against the disease,
Autosomal Issue
If a pregnant woman contracts
chickenpox during the first or
second trimester,
is a small risk that her child will be
born with a congenital malformation.
When a pregnant woman contracts
the disease within 5 days of
delivery, there is a high risk of the
Cures and treatments
Cures
• There are no actual cures for it ,can get a vaccine
shot to help prevent it.
Treatments
• Baths with uncooked oatmeal, baking soda, or
cornstarch can help relieve itching.
• Tylenol is used for fever or pain relief.
• (Aspirin should be avoided.)
• Antiviral drugs such as Acyclovir may be prescribed.
• You can put Calamine lotion on the pocks to help
stop the itching.
