Bret Pliske, Manager Health Service } | of the Canadian Medical Association Measles Measles is a child-killer. This disease which so many regard as of no seriousness and which is thought of as a necessary evil, accompanied by certain incon- veniences, is, as a matter of fact, a serious menace to child life, and because of the number of children it kills, it ranks amongst those diseases that take life in early childhood. In 1926, there occurred in Can- ada 893 deaths from Measles, of which 264 were children under one year of age. Most deaths from Measles occur under five years of age. The disease at- tacks especially those under three years. The older the child, the better the chance of recovery Measles is a communicable dis- ease; it is passed from the sick to the well. It is very easily spread and practically all who are exposed contract the disease, unless they have been protected by a previous attack. It is a mistaken idea that every child must have measles. It is criminal to expose children to measles, because to do so is to risk their lives. Measles is serious not only it kills, but because it seems to prepare the ground for: other diseases. It is the pneumonia following measles which makes it so dangerous. Tuberculosis may become active after measles Concerning the control of mea- sles, it must be remembered that measles is most contagious dur- ing the days before the rash ap- | pears. For this reason, it is ad- | vised that every child witha cold in the head be kept away from| Jother children, not only to pre- 'vent the spread of colds, but be- |cause the cold may be the first \stage, the most contagious stage, 'of measles. Part of the protection of child jlife is the protection of the child ,from measles.
