Measles, also known as rubeola, is a highly contagious viral illness that once affected millions of children worldwide each year. As depicted in these transmission electron micrographs (C016 / 9329, C015 / 7160, C015 / 7161, C015 / 7159, C015 / 7162, C015 / 7163, and C015 / 7164), the measles virus is an enveloped paramyxovirus with pleomorphic particles. The virus spreads through the air via respiratory droplets, causing symptoms such as fever, cough, and a characteristic rash. The rash, which starts on the face and spreads down the body, is caused by the virus infecting and damaging the cells in the skin. Before the introduction of the measles vaccine, this disease was a common childhood illness, causing complications such as pneumonia, encephalitis, and even death. Now, thanks to vaccination efforts, measles has been eliminated in many countries, providing a healthier future for generations to come.
