Symptoms, which may also include a runny nose, cough, bloodshot eyes, sensitivity to light and a dark red rash, usually appear from 10 to 14 days after exposure to measles, with a possible range of 6 to 21 days.
Measles is considered among the most contagious viruses in the world.
Unlike influenza pathogens, which spread when a person sneezes or coughs but then fall, the measles virus remains suspended in air, “like really light dust particles”, allowing the pathogens to linger and float for up to two hours, said Dr Martin Cetron, director of the Division of Global Migration and Quarantine at the CDC.
Influenza is spread by an exponent of two, meaning each person who gets it is likely to infect two others in a setting where people haven’t been immunised, he said.
Measles is likely to be spread to between nine and 19 people who are not immunised, depending on the setting and the herd immunity of those nearby, he said.
Israeli health officials sent a letter to the country’s airlines recommending that all staff be immunised with two doses of the vaccine against measles.
“The airlines have initiated implementation of the recommendation,” it said. El Al airlines said only that it operates in accordance with directives of the Health Ministry and declined further comment.
Taylor Garland, a spokeswoman for the Association of Flight Attendants, a union representing nearly 50,000 flight attendants at 20 airlines, said: “Our hearts are with our El Al sister who is battling this disease and our thoughts are with her for a full recovery.
"Her suffering should give the public and crew urgency to heed the recommendations of health officials.”
From 1 January to 1 April, 555 cases of measles were confirmed in the United States.

This is the second-greatest number of cases reported in the United States since measles was declared eliminated in 2000, the CDC reported. In 2014, 667 cases were reported.
The CDC recommends that all people who are able to receive two doses of MMR vaccine to protect against measles, mumps and rubella.
Infants who are travelling internationally should get their first dose at six months to 11 months of age.
All children should be vaccinated at 12 to 15 months of age, and again from four to six years. Teens and adults also should also be up-to-date with their vaccinations.
The vaccination status of the El Al flight attendant couldn’t be confirmed because of her hospitalisation, but her mother said she’d received all the recommended vaccinations, according to Bbadon.
Between 1971 and 1977, however, the recommendation in Israel was for only one vaccination against measles. The current recommendation for adults, including travellers abroad, is for two doses.
There have been two fatalities in Israel from the measles in the past six months, the first deaths from the disease in 15 years.
According to news reports there have been 3,600 cases of the measles in Israel in the past year, primarily among the ultra-Orthodox.
The International Air Transport Association, the trade badociation for the world’s airlines, said it does not track which airlines might require vaccinations against measles, but most countries have laws forbidding employers from insisting that employees receive immunisations.
An employee of Cathay Pacific flew on nine flights while potentially contagious with measles between 8-16 March to cities that included Hong Kong, Manila, Singapore and Bangkok, the Hong Kong Department of Health reported.
The Health Department said the employee, a 41-year-old man, was hospitalised in a stable condition. Hong Kong news reports said he was a pilot.
Cathay Pacific didn’t immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
