Medinfo: German Measles Or Rubella
Easy to understand information for patients on German measles, a mild viral illness caused by the rubella virus. Written by a UK general practitioner.
http://www.medinfo.co.uk/conditions/rubella.html

Extractions: index search health books site map German measles is a mild viral illness caused by the rubella virus. It causes a mild feverish illness associated with a rash, and aches in the joints when it affects adults. The major reason for any attention being devoted to the eradication of this condition is the nasty effects that it has on the unborn baby (known as a fetus), when a pregnant woman catches it in early pregnancy. Children are not usually affected too badly, and often the first manifestation is the rash. This is a fine, pink rash spreading from the forehead and face downwards. The rash may last for 1 to 5 days. There are often some of the glands (lymph nodes) enlarged, especially behind the ears and on the back of the head. Adults often feel more unwell before the rash appears, and may have pains in the joints rather like arthritis. Complications Risk

Facts About Rubella For Adults
Facts About rubella For Adults. What is rubella? rubella is also spread by directcontact with the nasal or throat secretions of an infected person.
http://www.nfid.org/factsheets/rubellaadult.html

Extractions: Rubella, also called German measles, is caused by a virus that is spread from person to person when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Rubella is also spread by direct contact with the nasal or throat secretions of an infected person. If a pregnant woman gets rubella during the first 3 months of pregnancy, her baby is at risk of having serious birth defects or dying. Prevention Symptoms of rubella may include a rash, slight fever, aching joints, headaches, discomfort, runny nose and reddened eyes. The rash first appears on the face and spreads from head to toe. The lymph nodes just behind the ears and at the back of the neck may swell, causing soreness and pain. Many people with rubella have few or no symptoms, and only about half of the people who have the disease get a rash. In most cases of rubella, symptoms appear within 16-18 days after exposure. Who should get MMR vaccine?

It is strongly recommended that if your pregnancy is planned, have a blood test to determine if you are immune to rubella before you start trying to conceive. Although rubella is not dangerous for you, it can have very serious implications for your unborn baby if the infection is contracted during pregnancy (the risk being highest in the first three months).

MMR Autism Report Summary
Immunization safety review of the MeaslesMumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine and autism. Report commissioned by the National Academies, Institute of Medicine.
http://www.iom.edu/IOM/IOMHome.nsf/Pages/MMR Autism Summary

Extractions: Immunization Safety Review: Measles-Mumps-Rubella Vaccine and Autism Immunization is widely regarded as one of the world's most effective tools for protecting public health. In the United States alone, child-vaccination programs have resulted in the elimination of smallpox and polio and rendered once-common, often debilitating, and potentially life-threatening infectious diseasessuch as diphtheria, pertussis, and measlesexceedingly un common. The MMR vaccine, which comprises three vaccines given in a single shot, has been extremely successful in virtually eliminating measles, mumps, and rubella in the United States. Measles cases, for example, dropped from over 400,000 per year in the pre-vaccine era to only 100 in 1999. However, these diseases remain a serious threat in other parts of the world where children are not routinely vaccinated. Measles alone resulted in over a million deaths in children around the world last year. Some parents and researchers are concerned though that the MMR vaccine might cause ASD. Autistic spectrum disorders are incurable, permanent diseases that result in serious developmental problems in children. Although scientists generally agree that most cases of ASD result from events that occur in the prenatal period or shortly after birth, there is considerable concern because autistic symptoms typically do not emerge until the child's second yearabout the same time the MMR vaccine is first administered. In addition, there are concerns that the introduction of wide-scale use of MMR coincides with an apparent increase in the incidence of autism.

It can also be transmitted to a fetus by a mother with an active infection, causing severe disease in the fetus. In children and adults, rubella is usually mild and may even go unnoticed. Children generally have few symptoms, but adults may experience fever headache malaise , and a runny nose before the rash appears. A person can transmit the disease from 1 week before the onset of the rash, until 1-2 weeks after the rash disappears. The disease is less contagious than rubeola measles ). Lifelong

http://www.sense.org.uk/rememberrubella/

Extractions: Because you'll never forget what Rubella can do MMR is in the news again and many parents are concerned about whether their child should receive the vaccination. Sense is worried that parents may not understand how damaging rubella can be and that a drop in immunisation may lead to a rubella epidemic. If you're thinking about immunisation, please consider the damage that rubella could do - to you, your child, grandchild or someone else's child. This website gives more information about rubella and about the effects of rubella We believe that parents have the right to make an informed choice about vaccination, based on all the information available - but Sense is confident that the MMR vaccination is the safest way to protect your child and other children.

http://cpmcnet.columbia.edu/texts/gcps/gcps0042.html

Extractions: Routine screening for rubella susceptibility by history of vaccination or by serology is recommended for all women of childbearing age at their first clinical encounter. Susceptible nonpregnant women should be offered rubella vaccination; susceptible pregnant women should be vaccinated immediately after delivery. An equally acceptable alternative for nonpregnant women of childbearing age is to offer vaccination against rubella without screening (see Clinical Intervention). There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against screening or routine vaccination of young men in settings where large numbers of susceptible young adults of both sexes congregate, such as military bases and colleges. Routine screening or vaccination of other young men, of older men, and of postmenopausal women is not recommended. Burden of Suffering Rubella is generally a mild illness; when contracted by pregnant women, however, especially those in the first 16 weeks of pregnancy, it frequently causes serious complications including miscarriage, abortion, stillbirth, and congenital rubella syndrome (CRS).1,2 The 1964 rubella pandemic in the U.S. caused over 12 million infections, 11,000 fetal losses, and 20,000 cases of CRS in infants.3 The most common manifestations of CRS are hearing loss, developmental delay, growth retardation, and cardiac and ocular defects.1,2 The lifetime costs of treating a patient with CRS were estimated in 1985 to exceed $220,000.3

Extractions: home about CERHR news CERHR chemicals ... contact us CERHR: Rubella (German Measles) Rubella Information from the March of Dimes NOAH, 1999 Facts Rubella (German measles) is a mild childhood illness that poses a serious threat to the fetus, if the mother contracts the illness during pregnancy. More than 20,000 babies were born with birth defects during an outbreak of rubella in 1964-65. The same outbreak also resulted in at least 10,000 miscarriages and stillbirths. Fortunately, major outbreaks of rubella no longer occur in this country. Since 1969, when a vaccine for rubella became available, children have been routinely vaccinated, helping to prevent the spread of the illness to susceptible pregnant women. Most women of childbearing age are immune to rubella because they either were vaccinated or had the illness during childhood. Because of widespread use of the vaccine, birth defects caused by rubella have become rare. However, since small outbreaks of rubella continue to occur, the potential for susceptible pregnant women to become infected continues to exist. As many as 2 in 10 women of childbearing age are susceptible to rubella. Women can protect their future children from the effects of rubella by getting tested for immunity prior to pregnancy and being vaccinated if they are not immune.
BBC News | Health | Parents Reassured On Vaccine
Doctors say there is no link between a vaccine for mumps, measles and rubella, and autism or bowel disease in children.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/365830.stm

Extractions: The BBC's Fergus Walsh: "Two major studies have ruled out any link with autism or bowel disease" Experts have also warned if confidence in the vaccine, known as MMR, does not return, new epidemics of childhood diseases could break out in as little as three years. Two new studies published in "The Lancet" on Friday show there is no link between the introduction of the vaccine and the sharp rise in autism diagnosed in children. Doctors and government health experts are now hoping the new findings will convince parents who have shunned the jabs that they are safe. 'Mothers must trust MMR' Professor Brent Taylor, of the Royal Free Medical School in north London, which carried out the research, said it was important mothers began to trust MMR again.

ImmuNet Rubella Current Case Definition for Surveillance Photo Courtesy of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Immunization Historical Trends (see graphs below) Rubella can be a disastrous disease in early gestation, leading to fetal death, premature delivery, and an array of congenital defects in up to 85% of infants infected in the first trimester. In the pre-vaccine era, epidemics of rubella occurred every six to nine years in the United States, with the last major epidemic in 1964-1965 resulting in 12.5 million cases of rubella and 20,000 cases of CRS. The estimated lifetime cost of one case of CRS today is in excess of $200,000. In Maryland, the last epidemic of rubella involving thousands of cases was also during 1964, when 3,583 cases were reported. Over 10,000 cases were reported in 1941, the largest epidemic recorded in the state. In contrast, no more than six cases have been reported in any one-year since 1983. Only one case has been reported since the last publication of this report, with onset in 1995.
