German measles (rubella)

It means you may or may not be immune to rubella or German measles.The value is not high enough to say yes and not low enough to say no.The test can be repeated.

Lytic cycle of rubella virus # Virus attaches to host cell. # Plasma membrane surrounds the virus and an endosomal vesicle forms. # The envelope of the virus fuses with the membrane and the vesicle. # The virus is released into the host's cytoplasm # Viral nucleic acid separates from its capsid # Nucleic acid enters host nucleus and replicates # Transcription into mRNA # Host ER directed by mRNA to synthesize glycoproteins and capsid proteins plus proteins of the viral envelope. # Vesicles transport glycoproteins to plasma membrane of cell. # New viruses assemble and are released from host cell after being enveloped by host's modified plasma membrane.

Yes, the rubella test (igg) should be positive during pregnancy, which means that you have taken the vaccination prior. Negative result (igg) doesn't mean that you are infected with rubella, however this means that you doesn't have Rubella antibodies in your blood stream. If your result comes out negative, then you should perform another test for Rubella igm, positive results will confirm your infection with this virus.

Usually through microscopic droplets, the so-called Flugge droplets, emitted from the upper airways of an infected subject during coughing and in lesser measure with talking. These may persist in the air up to two hours.

The virus may be also be present in surface skin debris and to a lesser extent in excreta: it is therefore advisable to treat clothes and sheets with a bleach solution before stowing away.

An infected patient may become infectious 5-8 days after inhalation and may remain infectious for up to 3 weeks before the first symptoms (usually a face rash) show.

Both Measles and Germal Measles (Rubella) are viruses. With German Measles you can get a blotchy red rash which comes and goes and usually disappears altogether after 2 days. You can sometimes suffer with a light cold prior to the rash appearing. German Measles can be dangerous for pregnant women who have no immunity to the virus. The infection period is usually a week before the rash until a week after it has disappeared. Measles has a mild upper respitatory affect. You can get a rash of spots, very high temperature which can last up to 4 days, cough, severe conjunctivitis and possibly encephalitis. The incubation period is 4 to 12 days and you can remain infectious for 3 to 5 weeks after rash.

The German Measles also called Rubella only effects the unborn baby during the first trimester of pregnancy. The earlier the Rubella is contracted, the more damage it can do to the unborn baby. When a baby is born to a Rubella infected mother they are born with the virus even if they do not show the physical signs of Rubella. This is called Congenital Rubella Syndrome and the baby can be contagious for up to a year after birth. The Rubella Virus can cause severe birth defects including blindness, deafness, heart problems, mental retardation, other learning disabilities, emotional/psychological challenges. Despite these limitations babies born to mothers who had the rubella virus can lead normal lives.There usually no lasting effects for the mother with the exception of false guilt for being exposed to the virus while pregnant.

This is just possible theoretically. But it should be very rare in practice to have such patient.

Rubella IgG is a specific antibody which our body's defenses has produced in response to a prior exposure, in this case, the virus Rubella.

Yes, the measles virus does mutate but only slightly.

of course not! because there is a possibilities that you might contiminate the air or foods outside as well as you might pass the virus or bacteria to other person. so just stay at home and quarantine yourself.

No, there is no cure for Rubella infection

Typically, a rubella titer is done before the first pregnancy. Chickenpox titer may be done at this time, also. Sometimes these tests are required before getting certain types of work. It is not necessary to get these tests repeated; once is enough.

Viruses cannot pick up gram staining because it does not have the cell wall of a bacteria.

A woman who does not have antibodies to rubella is at risk for serious birth defects in her baby if she gets German measles while she's pregnant. Rubella screening and immunization is part of the standard preconception workup.

If the expecting mother has rubella during the first 13 weeks of pregnancy there is a 90 % chance it will effect her baby. This could range from the fetus having a mild abnormality to Still birth. Blindness , deafness, metal retardation are some of the other defects that could arise in the baby. The farther along the mother is when she comes down with rubella the better for the baby. After 20 weeks the risk goes down considerably to the baby. MOST people are immunized against rubella now a days well before childbearing years take hold. Those that aren't, have a low risk of getting the illness due to most of the population already being vaccinated.

The best way not to get German Measels is immunisation. If someone catches measles, it can be that worse, that the person dies. If someone catches it as an adult, it sure will be much more complicated than catching it as a child.

the first person to get rubella was you ask me please then tell me thank you vey very much.... hhe he ☻

This is the scientific name. It's common name is German Measles. The name rubella means red as it produces a mild red rash. The virus is dangerous to a fetus. A vaccine is available for it. The vaccine is MMR (containing measles, mumps, rubella vaccines).

Rubella isn't usually a serious disease in children, a vaccine is a simple way to prevent it, however it can be very serious if a pregnant woman becomes infected. If she developed rubella during pregnancy, especially during the first three months, the infection is likely to spread to the foetus and cause congenital rubella syndrome (CRS). Up to 20% of the infants born to mothers infected with rubella during the first trimester of pregnancy have CRS. CRS can result in miscarriage, stillbirth and severe birth defects. The most common of the defects are blindness, deafness, heart damage and mental retardation.

• Swollen glands usually appear behind the ears and at the back of the neck. The glands will usually take about a week to return to normal.
• A distinctive red-pink rash appears three to four days after the first symptoms and last for up to seven days. The spots usually start behind the ears, before spreading around the head and neck, and after two to three days develop on the legs and the rest of the body.
• A temperature (fever) is common in children but can be more severe in adults. It may reach over 38C (100.4F) for several days before falling.
• Cold-like symptoms, such as a runny nose, watery eyes, sore throat, and cough are common, particularly in adults.
• Tiredness, irritability and a general lack of energy, plus aches and pains, and a poor appetite.
• Joint pain may develop for about a week or so, but this is more common in adults with rubella than in children.

common enough.

I really dont know the answer

Vaccination is the best way to prevent rubella and is normally required by law for children entering school. Rubella vaccine is usually given in conjunction with measles and mumps vaccines in a shot referred to as MMR
