Jacob Bogatin & Alternative Medicine

Measles is the virus illness that is characterised by a fever, slackness, weakness, headaches, rash, defeat conjunctivas and a cold.
Jacob Bogatin states that infection source is not only a sick person. The transmission of infection occurs air-drop by. Persons who are not ill with measles and have been not imparted against it, remain highly susceptible to measles during all life and can be ill at any age.
Immunity after transferred natural measles infections the proof. Repeated cases when a person gets ill and is diagnosed with measles occur very seldom. Immunity after inoculations more short-term (in 10 years after an inoculation only at 36 % vaccinated a protective caption of antibodies remains).
The incubatory period lasts 9—11 days.
The initial stage is characterised by rise in temperature of a body to 38—39°С, weakness, the general indisposition, appetite fall. The cold amplifies, there is a rough “barking” cough, reddening conjunctiva is sharply expressed. Measles rash appear in the form of the small red stains located on a mucous membrane of the soft and firm sky. These stains are more often localised on a mucous membrane of cheeks. They represent small, slightly towering over level of a mucous membrane the specks surrounded with a narrow reddish border, and strongly sit on a mucous membrane. According to Jacob Bogatin they remind semolina or bran. In the end of an initial stage (3-4th day) the body temperature goes down, then with occurrence of measles rashes again raises to higher figures. The general intoxication and defeat of respiratory ways amplify.
Rash elements are inclined to merge, forming difficult figures with scalloped edges. However even at the most dense rash it is possible to find out sites of absolutely normal skin. Jacob Bogatin is sure that in 3—4 days rash elements turn pale, on their place there are brownish stains — the pigmentation especially expressed and long at presence of transformations of a rash. On a rash place further a pityroid peeling is observed (on the person and a trunk). It is characteristic expressed conjunctivitis, sometimes with purulent separated, sticking together eyelashes in the mornings. At some patients pains in a stomach, a liquid chair are marked.
