Abstract

A total of 2767 Specimens were collected from the suspected cases of MEASLES in IRAN during the period time from the fall season of 1995 to summer of 1996.Hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay was utilized when both acute and convalescent serum samples were available while a Capture IgM EIA was used if a single serum sample was available.39% of the specimens tested were found to be positive for MEASLES. The majority of cases (22.67%) were found in the 15-19 years old age group, while the least number of cases (2.15%) was found in the less than one year old age group. Seasonal pattern of disease occurrence, indicates MEASLES to be most prevalent in the spring (55.29%), and least prevalent in fall (3.63%).61% of positive cases were found in patients who had never been vaccinated against MEASLES, and 30% of cases were found among patients with unknown history of VACCINATION and only 9% of positive cases were found in patients who have been vaccinated against MEASLES. MEASLES was developed in 16% and 40% of patients who were fully vaccinated (received two doses of vaccine) and patients who were never vaccinated respectively. The difference among the two groups is significant (P<0.0001).The highest rate of confirmed cases of MEASLES within the population (per 100,000 of population) of various provinces in the country was observed in Semnan province (7.83 in 100000) and the lowest rate was observed in kermanshah (0.17 in 100000). The overall rate of confirmed cases of MEASLES in the country was 1.79 per 100000 populations.
