A clinical syndrome characterized by fever, malaise, coryza, cough, and rash. Death is rare, usually from pneumonia or encephalopathy.

Because of aggressive vaccination programs in the U.S. starting in the late 1980’s, case reports have fallen from 250,000 in 1990 to a provisional 105 cases in 2003.
