Injuries, not contagious diseases, are a major cause of death during infancy, especially for child-ren 6 to 12 months old. The leading causes of injury to infants are falls, ingestion injuries (poison, foreign body ingestion, and medication), and burns. Aspiration often occurs from the ingestion of foreign material such as small toys and food items. The question is asking for a safe environment assessment and childhood safety; measles is an illness/disease caused by a pathogen and does not relate to providing a safe environment or information about childhood safety.
