Abstract

Objective To analyze the clinical and epidemiological features of confirmed measles cases under 15 years old,improve diagnosis level,accelerate measles control.Methods Data of 39 measles cases with IgM positive were analyzed.Results Among 39 cases,only 9 cases were the typical,accounted for 23.07%;2 cases were under 8 months;Cases concentrated on children aged 5~9 and 10~15 years old,accounted for 43.59% and 25.64% respectively.79.49% of them(31 cases) had zero-immunization history or unknown-immunization history;Measles was a dominant seasonal epidemic disease that most cases happened form March to June.Conclusions For measles vaccination of extensive inoculation.The cases with typical clinical features was decreasing;The lower effective 2-dose of measles vaccination coverage that caused existing in a zero-immunization was the mail reason of high measles incidence among preschool and school children.
