    Measles is misery: A brief update for paediatricians
    (2025-12-01) Lertamornkitti N.; Britton P.N.; Lertamornkitti N.; Mahidol University

Global outbreaks have intensified, and vaccine hesitancy is recognised as major health threat. Revisiting the clinical presentation of measles is crucial for early diagnosis and to reduce transmission of this highly contagious infection. As serious respiratory and neurological complications can follow natural infection and no specific antiviral therapy is available, vaccination remains the most effective strategy for prevention and control.
