Characteristics of vaccine-associated rash illness (VARI) and confirmed measles cases were compared during a measles outbreak. Although some clinical differences were noted, measles exposure and identification of the vaccine strain were helpful for public health decision-making. Rapid, vaccine strain-specific diagnostic assays will more efficiently distinguish VARI from measles.
在麻疹暴发期间，比较了疫苗相关皮疹疾病（VARI）和确诊麻疹病例的特征。尽管注意到了一些临床差异，但麻疹接触史和疫苗株的鉴定有助于公共卫生决策。快速、针对疫苗株的诊断检测将更有效地将 VARI 与麻疹区分开来。
