Measles are an acute infective disease highly contagious and belongs to the group of rush fevers. The aim of this paper is to examine the epidemiological characteristics of measles in Kosovo and Metohija after introducing the vaccine. The examination was carried out from 1987-1998. Because of the bad success after introducing the vaccine against measles in Kosovo and Metohija, which was not reached the issued minimum of 95% in either year, the measles have kept their epidemiological characteristics that they had in the prevaccinal period. The morbidity rate was in 1989. the highest (215.99 on 100000), and the lowest in 1995 (2.29 on 100000). Mortality rate was between 0-0.66 on 100000. It is very important that in those 4 years there were no dead cases. The cycles are still being registered by measles, with epidemic waves of 3-4 years. Seasons are also preserved, and the top of it is the month of January (291.3 patients on the average). Most patients belong to the preschool age (80.0%). Male children got more often ill (55.1%) than the female children.
