measle
Single red blotch
A measle is a single spot or lesion characteristic of measles, the viral disease that typically produces many such marks.
The word almost always appears in its plural form, measles, referring to the disease itself.
Measle also names a larval tapeworm that forms cysts in pork or beef, making infected meat unfit for consumption.
