Abstract

-Measles induces a post-critical immunological amnesia in patients.
-In the past, this was attributed to inanition arising from malnutrition.
-Recent molecular studies demonstrated the basis for the measles-induced amnesia.
-Francis Home likely described measles-induced immune amnesia already in the 18th century AD.
