Live attenuated

0.5 mL Subcutaneous (SQ)

12-15 months

4-6 years

Live attenuated

12-18 months

Same day or 28 days apart with Varicella

Respiratory droplets and airborne

Bacterial infection (Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes)

Red sores, oozing, honey-colored crusts, often around mouth, nose, & extremities

Fungal infection from dermatophytes

Circular, scaly patches with clear center, on scalp, body, feet, or groin

Infestation with lice

Intense itching, visible lice or eggs (nits) on hair or clothing.

Blocked hair follicles by oil, dead skin, hormones, bacteria or genes

Blackheads, whiteheads, pustules, cysts; commonly on face, back, chest.

The prodromal stage of measles is characterized by high fever, cough, runny nose, conjunctivitis, and Koplik spots.

Measles' rash stage involves a dark red-to-purple maculopapular rash that starts on the face and spreads to the body, accompanied by fatigue, photophobia, and lymphadenopathy.

Pneumonia, the most common cause of death from Measles, is a major complication; encephalitis is another serious concern.

Fever, malaise, muscle aches, and swollen salivary glands (especially parotid glands) are two common symptoms of Mumps.

Orchitis (testicular inflammation), oophoritis (ovarian inflammation), meningitis, encephalitis, and potentially deafness.

Chickenpox spreads via airborne droplets, direct contact with lesions, or contact with mucous membranes.

Early symptoms include fever, malaise, decreased appetite, headache, and irritability.

High-risk groups may require IV acyclovir and exposed at-risk children may receive immune globulin.

The prodromal stage of measles begins with high fever, cough, runny nose, watery eyes (conjunctivitis), and small white spots inside the mouth (Koplik spots).

The measles rash is a characteristic dark red-to-purple rash that spreads from the face to the body. It's often accompanied by fatigue, light sensitivity, and swollen glands.

Mumps spreads through saliva droplets from an infected person's cough or sneeze.

Mumps is characterized by fever, muscle aches, and swollen salivary glands, especially the parotid glands, which are located in the cheeks.

Chickenpox spreads through tiny droplets released in the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It can also spread by direct contact with the rash or by touching items that have come into contact with the rash.

Early symptoms of chickenpox include fever, feeling tired, loss of appetite, headache, and feeling irritable.

The chickenpox vaccine is a live attenuated vaccine, meaning it contains a weakened form of the virus.

The first stage of measles, marked by high fever, cough, runny nose, conjunctivitis, and distinctive blue-gray spots (Koplik spots) inside the mouth.

The second stage of measles features a characteristic dark red-to-purple rash that begins on the face and spreads to the rest of the body. Fatigue, sensitivity to light, and swollen lymph nodes are also present.

Pneumonia is the most common cause of death from measles. Encephalitis, a brain inflammation, is another serious complication.

Potential complications of mumps include orchitis (inflammation of the testicles), oophoritis (inflammation of the ovaries), meningitis, encephalitis, and, rarely, deafness.

Chickenpox spreads through airborne droplets, direct contact with blisters, or contact with infected mucous membranes.

People at high risk for serious complications from chickenpox may require intravenous acyclovir. Exposed children at high risk may receive immune globulin.

Caused by a fungal infection from a group of fungi called dermatophytes.

Circular, scaly patches of skin with a clear center. Can occur on the scalp, body, feet, or groin.

Infestation with tiny insects called lice that live on the scalp, typically causing intense itching.

Intense itching, visible lice or nits (eggs) on hair shafts or clothing.
