    1. RNA Morbillivirus
      1. Airborne respiratory - Surface transmissible 2 hrs - Mainly children - Rare due to vaccination(1 yr and pre school) - Beware foreigners/travel/neglect/immunosupressed - highly infectious and contagious (-4rash4+)
        1. PRESENATION - Prodrome: Fever, COryza, Conjunctivitis, Diarrhoea. Rash: Forehead and neck - spreads to trunk and legs, flat erythematous macular rash with some coalescing. Recovery quick after rash appearance.
          1. Investigations - Salivary swab for IgM or RNA
            1. Management - Most cases uncomplicated - symptomatic treatment, fluid, rest, pain relief.
              1. Com;plications - Bronchopneumonia (Staph Aureus/Strep Pneumonia), Otitis Media, Encephalitis 1/1000 within 2wks of rash appearing 10-15% mortality and 25% brain damage - Tx supportive unless bacterial cause.
                1. CHECK VIT A LEVELS - LOW VIT A = HIGH COMPLICATION RISK
                2. RUBELLA AKA GERMAN MEASELS - NOTIFIABLE
                  1. RNA RUBIVIRUS TOGAVIRIDAE - AIRBORNE RESPIRATORY
                    1. RSIK - MATERNAL INFECTION IN EARLY PREGNANCY = CONGENITAL RUBELLA SYNDROME = CARDIAC, OCULAR, CNS & SKELETAL COMPLICATIONS

                        1. INVESTIGATIONS - CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS IS UNRELAIBLE - SEROLOGICAL OR SWAB PCR GOLD STANDARD.
                          1. MANAGEMENT - OFF SCHOOL FOR 7 DAYS AFTER RASH APPEARANCE - SUPPORTIVE TX - REST, FLUIDS, ANTIPYREXIALS - ASK RE CONTACT WITH PREGNANT WOMEN

                            2. SCARLET FEVER - NOTIFIABLE
                              1. EXOTOXIN MEDIATED FROM STREPTOCOCCUS PYOGENES (GROUP A BETA HEAMOLYTIC - AIRBORNE RESPIRATORY DROPLETS - SCHOOL EXCLUSION

                                  1. PRESENTATION = PRODROME : SORE THROAT, FEVER, HEADACHE, VOMIT, PAIN - RASH WITHIN 12-48 HOURS, 1ST - NECK, CHEST AND SCAPULA THEN SPREADS TO TRUNK AND LEGS - COARSE SANDPAPER TEXTURE WITH PINPOINT DARK RED PUNCTUM ON A DIFUSE ERYTHEMATOUS BASE - PALE MOUTH, FLUSHED FACE - EVENTUAL SKIN PEELING - 1ST WHTE STRAWBERRY TOUNGE THEN RED STRAWBERRY TONGUE.
                                    1. INVESTIGATIONS - OFTEN A CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS - OTHERWISE THROAT SWAB AND CULTURE - ENSURE SWAB TAKEN FROM TONSILS OR POSTERIOR PHARYNX.
                                      1. MANAGEMENT - ABX = PENICILLIN (AZITHROMYCIN IF ALLERGIC) - REST - FLUIDS - PAIN REFEIF - SCHOOL EXCLUSION TILL 24HRS POST ABX - INCREASED RISK TO KIDS WITH RECENT CHICKEN POX = WATCH FOR HIGH TEMP, ARTHRITIS OR CELLULITIS. ABX LOWERS RISK OF RHEUMATIC FEVER BUT NOT POST STREP GLOMERULONEPHRITIS

                                                            1. MANAGEMENT - REDUCE SCRATCHING = ANTIHISTAMINES, PAIN RELEIF, FLUIDS. ACICLOVIR <24HRS/SEVERE/COMPLICATIONS. **LINK NSAIDS AND NECROTISING SOFT TISSUE
                                                            2. NON-SPECIFIC VIRAL RASH - WIDESPREAD BLOTCHY - NO OTHER SERIOUS SYMPTOMS
