Next page German measles (historical note): In its "Milestones In the History of Medicine," The New York Times Almanac for 1966 notes that: "Paul Parkman and Harry Myer (Americans develop vaccine for rubella (German measles)." In reality, several vaccines against rubella were developed and tested. Other contributors included Lepow, Veronelli, Hostetler, and Robbins. Frederick Robbins subsequently shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1954, albeit for the "discovery of the ability of poliomyelitis viruses to grow in cultures of various types of cells." (Robbins shared the prize with John Enders and Thomas Weller). Tissue culture was the key to understanding and preventing such scourges as polio and congenital rubella.

Rubella is also sometimes called the three-day measles. Rubella is most likely to have serious effects on your baby if you are infected during the first 3 months of pregnancy (a 25% risk). However, it may also affect the baby later in the pregnancy (a 1% risk). The baby may develop a group of severe birth defects called rubella syndrome. Rubella is caused by a virus. It is contagious a few days before symptoms of the illness appear and for 5 to 7 days after symptoms appear. Rubella tends to occur in epidemics in the community. Adults may not have any symptoms. When symptoms occur they may include: a rash that starts on the chest, spreads to other parts of the body, and lasts 3 to 5 days (the most common symptom). fever headache tiredness joint aches tender lymph nodes.

Extractions: Home Viral Rubella, also known as German measles is a viral disease characterised by rash, swollen glands and fever. The disease is usually mild and of little significance unless you are pregnant. Infection of a pregnant woman (congenital rubella syndrome) commonly results in miscarriage, stillbirth, or birth of an infant with major birth abnormalities. Rubella is now rarely seen in countries where rubella vaccination is part of their routine immunisation programme. In countries that do not have immunisation programmes in place, rubella continues to be a mild childhood illness that may even pass un-noticed. The major burden is congenital rubella syndrome and its devastating effects to the unborn foetus. Rubella is spread from person to person through direct contact with nasal or throat secretions of infected individuals. An infected person is contagious from 7 days prior to the rash appearing until 7 days later. Patients are most contagious when the rash is erupting. Children and adults with rubella should avoid attending childcare facilities, school, work or other public places during their infectious period. An acute infection of rubella almost always confers lifelong immunity. What are the signs and symptoms of rubella?

Extractions: Rubella, more commonly known as German measles or three-day measles, is a relatively mild but highly contagious viral infection characterized by a pink-red rash, a mild fever, and swollen lymph nodes along the sides of the neck or below the ears. It resembles regular measles, but is not the same disease.(According to the American Medical Association, the term "German" has nothing to do with the country; instead it's probably derived from the Latin word germanus , which means "similar to.")

Symptoms The person is rarely ill but will have a slightly raised temperature and swollen glands on the neck and base of the skull. The pinhead-sized, flat, red spots last about two days and need no treatment. Paracetamol will help reduce the slight fever. Causes The virus is very contagious and will spread quickly in people who are not immune. Prevention Vaccination for girls and boys is safe and effective. Complications Very rarely the virus that causes German measles (rubella) will cause an inflammation of the brain (encephalitis). The real danger may come in later life if an unvaccinated woman becomes infected with German measles (rubella) while pregnant as it can affect the development of the baby. For this reason alone, both boys and girls should be immunised with this very safe vaccine. Self care Paracetamol will reduce the mild fever.

Rubella (German Measles) Rubella, www.Studenthealth.co.uk. Rubella (german measles) is a viral infection which is usually very mild in children; adults may be more unwell. http://www.studenthealth.co.uk/leaflets/Rubella.htm
Extractions: Rubella www.Studenthealth.co.uk Rubella (German measles) is a viral infection which is usually very mild in children; adults may be more unwell. The rash commonly starts on the face and behind the ears. The glands in the neck and at the base of the skull may be enlarged. There may also be a fever, headache and sore eyes (conjunctivitis). Adults and adolescents may also get pain in the joints. It is spread by droplet infection, ie coughs and sneezes. The incubation period is 14-21 days and an infected individual is infectious from 5 days before the rash appears to 5 days after. The illness is of little relevance to the individual who usually recovers quickly. If however, it is transmitted to a pregnant woman who is not immune to the virus, it can have a devastating effect on the developing baby. It can cause deafness, blindness, severe learning disability, heart defects and death. Immunisation is vital to prevent the spread of this infection. All pregnant women are tested in early pregnancy to determine whether or not they are immune to the infection. Women planning pregnancy would be sensible to have a blood test to check their immunity before they get pregnant. Immunisation can then be offered. It is advised that women do not get pregnant for 3 months after immunisation although babies born to women who have inadvertently been immunised during pregnancy do not seem to have had any rubella related problems.

Extractions: Rubella, or German measles, is an infection which causes a pinkish-red rash that first appears on the face and later spreads elsewhere on the body. Other symptoms are a mild temperature and swollen lymph glands. The virus runs its course in about three days. Although rubella is a relatively mild illness, it's very dangerous for a pregnant woman as it can lead to all sorts of problems in her baby, ranging from deafness to encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) and heart defects. Fortunately, at least 75% of women in their childbearing years are immune to the disease, either because they were vaccinated against it as a child or because they have already had the illness. What if I'm not immune? What can I do?
