Sažetak
What is common to mathematics and measles? Except for the letter M, and except that at least someone likes mathematics (although this, in a statistical language, is a rare event), there are no similarities. However, mathematics deals with many things, perhaps with everything imaginable, including measles. Specifically, infectious diseases, just like all the things we fear, are always an exciting re-search topic. Not only for epidemiologists and physicians but for other experts and scientists, including mathematicians. Also, mathematics and statistics offer solutions to many problems related to the spread of infectious dis-eases (although these solutions are, at least initially, only theoretical).
