Viral Infections (Part 2) - More than just measles

We’ve gone viral!  

Join Dr George Moncrieff and Dr Roger Henderson as they discuss paraviral rashes, where the rash is an immune response to the virus.  

They’ll be covering: 

  • Measles
  • Rubella
  • Fifth disease
  • Pityriasis rosea
  • Hand, foot and mouth disease
  • Herpangina 

Tune in to hear tips for diagnosis, the available treatment options and some potentially serious complications. 

Plus, the two hosts will be discussing why they think the MMR vaccine uptake is falling, resulting in rising cases of measles.
