Childhood Infectious Diseases are common infectious diseases caught and spread by children but can also occur in adults.
With a childhood vaccination regime, many of these infectious diseases common in the past are now rare.

Measles
Rubella
Mumps
Diphtheria
Croup
Pertussis
Poliomyelitis
Chickenpox
Hand Mouth Foot Disease
