A new early symptom of measles. Stimson (Journ. of Amer. Med. As., vol. 93, No. 9, 1928)
Dr. Stimson, in an article on the early diagnosis of measles, points out that most of the known symptoms of the prodromal period, such as exanthema, corneal spots, prodromal rash, etc., appear when the catarrh of the nasal and pharyngeal mucosa is already clearly expressed and when, therefore, the patient has already managed to infect the surrounding children. Therefore the symptom described by the author, which appears about 11 days after infection, even before the appearance of the catarrh, namely about 12 hours after the first rise in body temperature, is of great importance.
