[Video] First adult measles death recorded this year

Currently, every day, the Institute of Tropical Medicine receives about 10 to 20 adult patients with measles with symptoms of fever, rash, cough, watery eyes, and runny nose.

Many patients progressed severely with complications of pneumonia, respiratory failure, increased liver enzymes, diarrhea, and even encephalitis and meningitis. Most of them had not been vaccinated or had been vaccinated against measles but had not received a booster shot.

Measles cases are usually between 30 and 50 years old and subjectively do not think they have measles, so when they go to the hospital, the disease is already serious.
