A review of the general aspects of the transmission dynamics of measles is presented. Similarities and differences in the patterns of transmission of measles in developed and developing countries are pointed out. Epidemiological, demographic and nutritional variables relevant to the design of an immunization program are briefly discussed. Since there is no cohort in developing countries in which most individuals are susceptible, it is concluded that there is no single optimum age at which to vaccinate against measles. Finally, a simple method based upon case notification records, for calculating the force and average age of infection as well as the optimum age for vaccination against measles is illustrated.
