Claims that garlic can “kill measles” frequently circulate online, but there is currently no clinical evidence that garlic prevents or treats measles infection in humans. Measles remains a highly contagious viral disease, and vaccination is the only proven and effective method of prevention, as clearly stated by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Garlic should not be considered a substitute for vaccines, antiviral therapies, or professional medical care.
