Abstract

Measles is one of the highly contagious viral infections. In spite of very effective vaccine against MEASLES, yet it is endemic in many places in the world and about 800000 people die from it annually. In spite of very effective vaccine coverage in Sistan and Baluchestan province, MEASLES has been noticed endemic and though former studies indicated IMMUNITY LEVEL amongst children between 2-5 years, 63% within one of the cities of the province, yet there are chances of MEASLES contraction amongst adults with severity and serious complications. Nonetheless we focused our study particularly on women between the ages of 15-45 years in Saravan in order to detect the IMMUNITY LEVEL amongst them.When the size of samples was determined, 365 samples collected of 15-45 years women. Serum was then separated and stored at -10°C before the assay. ELISA kit was employed to detect anti MEASLES antibody. Furthermore during samples collection a questionnaire was designed to collect demographic and other variables data from each woman understudy. Our survey indicated that 89.6% of population understudy were seropositive for MEASLES, in spite of being vaccinated previously. Moreover this study also revealed that between the age increase and IMMUNITY LEVEL against MEASLES there was significant correlation according to chi-square analysis. (P=0.0005) Furthermore this correlation was also observed between the number of family members and immunity against the disease. (P=0.001) According to the results obtained in this study that showed IMMUNITY LEVEL less than 95% and preceding survey carried out in this province amongst children between 2-5 years indicating 63% immunity, there are chances of epidemics occurrence every couple of years.Hence according to our results and previous one, we strongly suggest more precise program for MEASLES vaccination and subsequently assessment of vaccination effects in alteration of antibody level in this province must be kept under scrutiny.
