Measles is also known as rubeola, which is derived from the Latin word for "little red." Other names include morbilli and hard measles. It is sometimes colloquially referred to as "red measles" to distinguish it from rubella, which is commonly known as "German measles."

How many kinds of measles are there?

There are two types of measles. Although they share some of the same symptoms, they are caused by different viruses: 1.) Standard measles, sometimes known as red measles, or hard measles, is caused by the rubeola virus. 2.) German measles, also known as rubella, is an entirely separate illness caused by the rubella virus and is usually a milder infection than standard measles.


Does a rubella igg test 400 mean you are immune to both types of measles?

A rubella IgG test result of 400 indicates that you have immunity to rubella, not measles. Rubella is distinct from measles, which is caused by a different virus. To be immune to measles, you would need to have a specific IgG test for measles, not rubella. Therefore, a high rubella IgG level does not imply immunity to measles.
