New York, Dec 22 (IANS) Scientists have mapped how the measles virus mutated and spread in the brain of a person who succumbed to a rare, lethal brain disease. Measles is one of the most contagious diseases. The measles virus infects the upper respiratory tract where it uses the trachea, or windpipe, as a trampoline to launch and spread through droplets dispersed when an infected person coughs or sneezes. While vaccination can effectively combat the disease, hesitancy and missed vaccinations, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, is causing a resurgence. The new finding, published in the journal PLOS Pathogens, may help create effective antiviral drugs to combat virus spread in the brain.
