I think you may confuse lay people to say that measles is a causitive agent for croup. I talked to our County Infectious DIsease Nurse and we felt that a person with a measles infection could have inflammation in the area that would give them a 'croupy' cough, due to generalized swelling. Is this not so? Thanks, K. Tangney-Rogers, RN
