Abstract

To investigate viruses in measles-negative cases, 221 measles-suspected samples collected in Gyeonggi Province, South Korea were tested using a real-time PCR assay. Rubella virus was not detected. However, 11 cases of parvovirus B19 (5.0%), 47 cases of human herpesvirus 6 (21.3%), 25 cases of human herpesvirus 7 (11.3%), and one case of co-infection with parvovirus B19 and human herpesvirus 7 were confirmed, as were eight cases of co-infection with human herpesvirus 6 and human herpesvirus 7. This study showed that parvovirus B19, human herpesvirus 6, and human herpesvirus 7 should be considered by physicians for the diagnosis of measles-suspected patients.
