The danger is mainly from high fever. Other possible complications include diarrhea, ear infections and pneumonia, each in about 7% of cases. Also, less commonly, seizures, blindness and inflammation of the brain.

So, measles can be serious, but not usually.

Almost every childhood illness “can be dangerous”...but are not in most cases. Parents need to parent
