Studies on immunity to measles have been in progress since 1960. Primary infection with measles virus was followed by evidence of detectable antibody by the twelfth day; peak antibody titers were observed by the twenty-first to the twenty-eighth day. Subsequently, in most instances antibody persisted for at least four years at levels capable of completely inhibiting measles infection. However, when antibody declined to minimal or undetectable levels, exposure to measles virus was usually followed by an asymptomatic infection and a booster response; under these circumstances antibody was detectable by the seventh day and peak antibody levels were observed by the twelfth day. These studies confirm the observation that one attack of measles is followed by lifelong immunity. They also provide strong support for the prediction that one inoculation of live measles-virus vaccine will confer permanent immunity.
