This dis- case which so many regard as of no seriousness and which is thought of as a necessary evil, accompanied by cer- tain inconveniences, is, as a matter of fact. a serious menace to child life, and because of the number of children it kills, it ranks high amongst those diseases that take life in early child- hood. In 1926. there occurred in Canada S93 deaths from Measles, of which 264 were children under one year of age. Most deaths from measles occur und- er five years of age. The disease zitâ€" tacks especially those under thiec years. The older the child. the better chance he has of recovery. Measles is a communicable disease; it passed from the sick to the well. It is very easily spread and practical- .1y all who are exposed contract the disease. unless they have been pro- tected by a previous attack. It a mistaken idea that every child must have measles. It is crimi- nal to expose children to measles. be- cause to do so is to risk their lives. Measles is serious not only because it kills, but because it seems to pre- pare the ground for other diseases. It is the pneumonia following measles ‘ which makes it so dangerous.
