Abstract:
Despite a 99% reduction in the incidence of rubella in the United States since the introduction of rubella vaccine, rubella continues to strike groups such as college students, prison inmates, recent immigrants, and populations that lack access to health care. The author discusses rubella's clinical manifestations in adolescents, cogenital rubella syndrome, diagnostic strategies, and immunizations.
