First we have to confirm whether it is measles rash. If you have taken any picture that will be helpful. Measles vaccine can have 10 to 15% failure rates because by 9 months only one dose is given usually. If you want to confirm we should send for measles PCR test.

Next Steps

Meet your pediatrician if any complications are there.
