Can senior citizens still get measles?
Yes. If they have not been vaccinated or otherwise acquired immunity (by having contracted the disease previously, then they can still get measles.

Can you get chickenpox if you had measles?

How does measles vaccine prevent diarrhea?
Children who have measles., or have had the disease in the previous four weeks, have a substantially increased risk of developing severe or fatal diarrhea or dysentery (there is some evidence that the increased risk lasts up to six months after measles). Because of the strong relationship between measles and serious diarrhea, and the effectiveness of measles vaccines, measles immunization is a very cost-effective measure for reducing diarrhea morbidity and deaths. Measles vaccine given at 9 months of age can prevent up to 25% of diarrhea-associated deaths in children under 5 years of age.
What are the chances of infection after having unprotected sex with two men on the same day?
Twice as likely as having sex with one man. Anytime you have unprotected sex you run the risk of catching something. One, two, or fifteen, each encounter runs the same risk.
Can you catch German measles after a MMR vaccine?
While the MMR vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella) is highly effective in preventing German measles (rubella), it is still possible, though rare, to contract the virus after vaccination. The vaccine provides immunity to about 97% of recipients, meaning a small percentage may not develop full protection. Additionally, if someone is vaccinated but later exposed to the virus, their immune response may not be strong enough to prevent infection. Overall, vaccination significantly reduces the risk of contracting German measles.

Does measles and mumps in adults cause infertility?
Measles and mumps are viral infections that can have serious complications, but their direct link to infertility in adults is primarily associated with mumps. Mumps can lead to orchitis, an inflammation of the testicles, which may affect fertility in males. However, measles does not have a well-established connection to infertility. Overall, while mumps can pose a risk to male fertility, the effects of measles on reproductive health are not as clear.

What Physiological stresses such as blood loss burns measles and cancer are known particularly to increase the risk of?
Physiological stresses such as blood loss, burns, measles, and cancer are known to particularly increase the risk of infection due to a weakened immune system. These conditions compromise the body's ability to fight off pathogens and may lead to secondary infections or complications. It is crucial to manage these conditions promptly to reduce the risk of infections.
