Rubella, also known as German measles, is a viral infection caused by the Rubella virus. It is highly contagious and spreads through respiratory droplets. While it may initially present mild symptoms such as a rash, mild fever, and swollen lymph nodes, the real concern lies in its potential impact on pregnant women.
If a pregnant woman contracts Rubella, it can lead to congenital rubella syndrome in her baby, causing severe birth defects and developmental issues. Vaccination against Rubella is crucial to prevent the spread of the virus and protect against its potential complications.
The Rubella vaccine is a preventive vaccine designed to protect against the Rubella virus. It is typically administered as part of the MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella) vaccine, which provides immunity against three different viruses.
The Rubella vaccine contains weakened Rubella virus particles that stimulate the body's immune system to produce antibodies. These antibodies help the immune system recognize and fight the Rubella virus if a person is exposed to it in the future.
The Rubella vaccine works by stimulating the body's immune system to recognize and defend against the Rubella virus. The vaccine contains weakened Rubella virus particles or a part of the virus that cannot cause the disease but can still trigger an immune response.
The Rubella vaccine is typically administered as part of the MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella) vaccine to children. The first dose is usually given around the age of 12-15 months, and the second dose is administered around 4-6 years of age.
AEFI stands for Adverse Events Following Immunization, and like all vaccines, the Rubella vaccine may cause some side effects in a small percentage of individuals. However, it's important to note that the vast majority of people who receive the Rubella vaccine experience only mild and temporary reactions.
