Description

North Carolina braces for potential measles outbreak as neighboring South Carolina sees over one hundred cases. Measles is highly contagious, spreading through the air and infecting up to eighteen people in a group of unvaccinated individuals. No specific treatment exists, but vaccination and antibody boosters can reduce risk. The best prevention is two doses of the MMR vaccine, which protects against measles, mumps, and rubella. Symptoms include cough, red eyes, runny nose, and a rash with small, raised bumps. Early diagnosis and medical guidance are crucial.
