EBV

The rash in EBV (infectious mononucleosis) is most famously triggered by the administration of ampicillin, a specific historical clue not associated with CMV.

HIV

The acute retroviral syndrome of HIV can cause a rash, but it is often accompanied by prominent mucosal ulcers and a history of high-risk exposure.

Measles

Measles is distinguished by its prodrome of cough, coryza, and conjunctivitis, and the presence of Koplik spots inside the mouth before the rash appears.

Rubella

The rubella rash is a finer, pinker maculopapular eruption that starts on the face and spreads down more rapidly, and is characteristically associated with posterior auricular lymphadenopathy.
