Moved from Exanthem subitum
In parallel with guidance to name critters after their common names, and more notable disease examples like Measles, I have moved this to Roseola. Demi T/C 18:58, 2005 May 5 (UTC)
discovery?
Where and when was Roseola discovered? ---- Chris November 20, 2006
Separate roseolovirus article
Roseolovirus or HHV-7 should have its own article like all of the other HHV's. With the species infobox, taxonomic links, and ties to this roseola article, I think we have enough material for a decent stub. I'll make the move. - Draeco 16:47, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
It's in our DNA \o/
No, really! :-)

What? No Hebrew translation?
Please, someone add a literal translation of the Hebrew name of this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.61.63.7 (talk) 01:38, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

UCF WikiProject Medicine - Introduction & Workplan - 04/16/20
Hello! My name is Anna and I am a fourth year medical student who attends the University of Central Florida College of Medicine. I am currently enrolled in a WikiProject medicine course. I will be pursuing a career in Pediatrics and so have decided to contribute to the Roseola Wiki page. As this is my first time editing a Wikipedia article, I appreciate your patient and feedback as I embark on this journey!
My workplan for this article is as follows:
General: Overall, this page touches on the main points of Roseola, however, it can be expanded to follow the WikiProject Medicine Manual of Style for Diseases, Disorders, or Syndromes. Specifically, the content structure can be expanded to include Classification, Mechanism (Pathogenesis), Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Epidemiology. In addition, several existing sections such as Signs and Symptoms, Prevention, Treatment, and Research Directions can be expanded to include available and relevant information.
Lead: The lead is a great summary of the existing information in the article, but the language can be streamlined to be more easily readable. The addition of summarized relevant information about diagnosis and epidemiology could also strengthen the lead.
Classification: This section can be created to give an overview of Roseola's place in the classification of Herpes viruses. As this is a common condition seen in pediatrics, it may be helpful to distinguish this virus from the other more commonly known Herpes viruses.
Signs and Symptoms: The current information includes a helpful summary, but can certainly be expanded upon to include the differences in the febrile phase followed by the rash. Images can be included. In addition, more citations could strengthen this section.
Causes: This section is lacking citations. It also includes epidemiological information which can be moved to the Epidemiology section.
Mechanism: Information on pathogenesis of this disease would be a useful addition to this page.
Diagnosis: Although diagnosis of Roseola is based on clinical presentation, discussing the criteria for diagnosis would be a helpful addition to this page.
Prevention: This section lacks citations and could include more available information about the prevention of Roseola.
Prognosis: Considering the high prevalence and the age distribution, adding information about the prognosis and outcomes for patients with Roseola would be beneficial.
Epidemiology: The prevalence, incidence, and particularly age distribution of this virus would be useful information for this page.
History: This section includes helpful information about the discovery of Roseola, but lacks citations.
Research: This section can be updated with new information about research directives as necessary.

- This image is half rosela and half 5th disease.
- Prognosis is less good in those who are immunocompromised were it may result in death per the source.

Peer Review WikiProject Medicine UCF College of Medicine course
Hi Anna!
Overall I think you did a wonderful job editing this page.
Intro: I think it is good that you added the other name “sixth disease”
Signs and Symptoms: I like how you divided up the Fever and Rash section. In the Fever section you should consider linking “febrile seizures” to the Wiki page on this subject. Just in case anyone is unsure what a febrile seizure is.
Cause: I think the cause section is well done and I like that you added the “Spread” sub heading. If I were a parent I would definitely be interested in how the virus is spread.
Diagnosis: The diagnosis section is well done.
Prevention: I think you did and good job redoing this section. Again this is a section that I would be interested in if I were a parent. You may want to consider adding “Risk factors” here of a whole new section on “Risk factors”.
Prognosis: This section is well done.
Epidemiology: This section is well done.
The citations look adequate and up to date. Overall I think you did a great job and definitely added to the important of this page!
