Measles Weasels - School's out (Level 1)
True or false...?
 * You can get measles by eating rotten fishsticks or other questionable foods
 * You can get measles by playing with stray cats or other animals
 * You can't get the measles if you have been vaccinated against them
 * The measles is transferred through the air (ie. it is airborne)
 * Measles is a type of virus
 * You can get measles by sharing a drink with someone who has the virus
 * You can see if someone has the measles because their hair falls out and their fingers fall off

WHAT ARE YOUR IDEAS?
 * Explain why you think the bus driver won't let Timmy back on the bus if he's showing any signs of the measles.

Measles Weasels - At the doctor's office (Level 2)
Food for thought after completing level 2
 * List at least 3 symptoms of the measles that Timmy came across on his adventure.
 * Why did Johnny get the measles and Timmy remain healthy?
 * How might Johnny have contracted the measles virus?
 * i) sharing a drink with Timmy
 * ii) playing with the neighbour's cat
 * iii) riding in an elevator with many people

WHAT ARE YOUR IDEAS?


 * Why do you think there pus in Johnny's bronchioles?
 * How do you think this affects how Johnny feels?
 * When else might this symptom occur? Why? (i.e. what other illnesses?)

Measles Weasels - Kill the virus (Level 3)
Food for thought after completing level 3
 * Where did Timmy come across the following things during his trip through Johnny's respiratory system? Do you know what they mean?
 * macrophage
 * bacteria
 * specific immunity
 * non-specific immunity
 * killer T cells
 * helper T cells
 * viruses
 * suppressor T cells
 * natural killer cells
 * antigen
 * vaccine
 * memory T and B cells
 * antibody
 * Why are they called killer T cells?
 * How long can an airborne virus live?
 * About how long after Johnny contracted the virus did he start to show symptoms? (ie. how long is the incubation period for measles?)

WHAT ARE YOUR IDEAS?
 * Can you explain why you see people on the news or on the streets walking around with masks when there is a virus going around (the N1H1 virus, or the SARS virus)
 * Can you explain why you can't get the measles virus from a stray cat?
