Last Updated Tue, 10 May 2005 06:53:45 EDT CBC News LONDON, ONT. - The number of rubella cases in southwestern Ontario continues to grow, including a 32-year-old man in London, Ont., who was vaccinated as a child. There are also fears the outbreak could spread and threaten the fetuses of unvaccinated pregnant women. On Monday, 121 people were confirmed as infected in an area centred around Norwich, about 40 kilometres east of London. Across the country, there are about 30 cases of rubella each year. The 32-year-old man is from Norwich, but attends a private college in London.

Extractions: Links Background The National Congenital Rubella Surveillance Programme (NCRSP) was established in 1971 to monitor the impact of rubella immunisation on congenital rubella. Before rubella vaccine became available, an estimated 200-300 babies were born with congenital rubella syndrome every year in the UK, and many more in epidemic years which occurred every 5 years or so. Most affected infants were deaf, and some had multiple problems, including damage to the eye and heart. Selective immunisation was introduced in 1970 for all schoolgirls and for susceptible adult women. Since 1988 the MMR (measles/mumps/rubella) vaccine has been offered to all children in the second year of life; the schoolgirl immunisation programme has now ceased. Confirmed and suspected cases of congenital infection are reported to the NCRSP by a variety of sources, and since 1990 there has been active surveillance through the British Paediatric Surveillance Unit, the national reporting scheme of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health.

Extractions: Peer Review Status: Externally Peer Reviewed The incidence of rubella has decreased markedly since the rubella vaccine was introduced in 1969. However, in the adult population, rubella continues to be a concern for nonimmunized women of child-bearing age. When rubella is contracted during pregnancy, especially during the first trimester, it can result in miscarriage, stillbirth, or the development of congenital rubella syndrome (CRS). CRS develops in an estimated 85% of infants born to women who acquire rubella during the first trimester of pregnancy. The most frequently occurring clinical manifestations of CRS are deafness, low birth weight, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, ocular defects, psychomotor retardation, congenital heart disease, and petechiae. In 1995, approximately 128 cases of rubella and 6 cases of CRS were reported. Rubella vaccine is approximately 95% effective at conferring immunity, which is probably lifelong. Screening and subsequent immunization of susceptible women of childbearing age have been shown to decrease the incidence of CRS.

Extractions: RUBELLA By Hilary Butler Rubella virus is a moderately large single-stranded RNA virus classified in the family Togavirus, although its laboratory behaviour is more like that of the paramyxoviruses. Rubella virus is highly sensitive to heat, to extremes of pH and to a variety of chemical agents. The virus affects humans exclusively, in whom it causes two disease presentations: a benign exanthem (rash) in children 5 to 9 years old (pre-vaccine era), and a potentially devastating congenital infection if a pregnant woman has clinical symptoms in the first three months of pregnancy. "There appears to have been a slight upward shift in the age-specific incidence of rubella." (Paediatrics, vol. 55 no. 1 Jan 1975.) The current assessment of risk of congenital malformations after rubella infection in pregnancy is confusing. On the one hand, Krugman (p. 412) says: "30 – 50% during the first four weeks of gestation. 25% in the fifth to eighth week; 8% in the ninth to twelfth week. A slight risk of deafness during the thirteenth to sixteenth week. Overall risk of malformations in the first trimester is approximately 20%." And on the other hand, Carlos Abramowsky (1997) states:

http://www.earthtym.net/ref-rubella.htm

Extractions: Rubella [rue-BELL-uh] is a mild but very contagious viral illness. Other names for rubella are German measles and three-day measles. Rubella is dangerous because of its ability to harm unborn babies. Infection in a pregnant woman can result in miscarriage, stillbirth, or serious birth defects. People get rubella by breathing in droplets that get into the air when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. Rubella can also spread by direct contact with fluids from the nose or throat of an infected person. ... About half of people infected with rubella virus get a rash that looks like small, fine pink spots. The rash first appears on the face and progresses from head to foot, lasting about 3 days. Children usually develop few or no other symptoms. Adults can have mild fever, headache, reddened eyes, swollen glands behind the ears, tiredness, and joint pain. An infected person can spread the disease for as many as 5 days before the rash appears to 7 days after.

Extractions: Rubella (german measles) is usually a mild illness. However, it can cause serious damage to the unborn child of a pregnant woman. Rubella immunisation is routinely given to children (as part of the MMR vaccine). Woman should have a blood test to check if they are immune to rubella before their first pregnancy. The immunisation Before 1995, all girls aged 10-14 in the UK were offered immunisation to protect them against rubella during any future pregnancies. Since 1995, rubella immunisation has been offered to all children, both male and female. The rubella vaccine used for immunisation is combined with the measles and mumps vaccines (the MMR vaccine). Children are given the MMR vaccine at about the age of 13 months, with a booster dose given about three years later (before school entry). The aim is to eliminate the rubella virus from the whole community. Serious problems with the rubella vaccine are rare. However, mild reactions such as a slight fever, a mild sore throat, and joint pains sometimes occur about 1-3 weeks after the injection. These soon subside and are of no consequence. Before you become pregnant Even if you have had a rubella immunisation, or have had rubella (german measles), there is still a small chance that your body has not made enough antibodies against the rubella virus to protect you. The only way to check whether the immunisation has worked is to have a blood test. This checks for rubella antibodies. Because the congenital rubella syndrome is so important to avoid, if you are thinking about becoming pregnant for the first time you should have a blood test to check that you are protected.

The seed stock from RA 27/3 has been successfully used worldwide since the 1970's as a vaccine for the prevention of rubella infection. This vaccine has been administered alone and as part of a combination vaccine (e.g. MMR; measles, mumps, rubella vaccine). The Wistar Institute has maintained seed stocks of the RA/ 27/3 strain of rubella for use in production of vaccines. These vaccines have been licensed to regional public health agencies and to for-profit companies who are developing vaccines for local distribution, particularly in Asia and South America.

Extractions: Home Introduction Community Health Measles Vaccine ... Mumps Vaccine Rubella Vaccine Rubella Vaccine S trategies for rubella immunization have resulted in an inactivated as well as an attenuated vaccine. The inactivated virus, though its efficacy is for long-term immunization is doubtful, involves sequencing of the E1 protein (a surface protein of the rubella virus) and then producing it in quantity in baculouvirus vectors. Neutralizing antibodies have been produced towards epitopes in the E1 protein, which result in a degree of immunogenicity towards the virus. Synthetic peptides have also had similar results. T he attenuated rubella vaccine is currently used in most clinical settings. The RA27/3 human diploid fibroblast vaccine is the most widely used rubella vaccine throughout the world. This strain is most favored due to its low rate of side effects, consistent immunogenicity, and induction of resistance to reinfection. Preparation of RA27/3 involved the attenuation of the virus by passage through the use of cold adaptation. Sequencing of RA27/3 showed that only 31 amino acids were altered in the attenuation of the virus. Thus, the virus was weakened enough to prevent its virulence. However, the few number of passages that were necessary to attenuate the virus enabled it to maintain a high level of immunogenicity. Back to Top Dosage and Vaccine Failure T he rubella vaccine is administered subcutaneously. Efforts at administering the vaccine intra-nasally have proved ineffective with doses below 10,000 plaque-forming units (PFU) of virus. Meanwhile, subcutaneously immunization only requires 1,000 PFUs and shows similar humoral antibody and slightly reduced secretory antibody production as the intra-nasal route.

Extractions: Congenital Rubella Syndrome (CRS) updates: last modified THIS IS THE MAIN PAGE IN "CONGENITAL RUBELLA SYNDROME (CRS)" IN "WHO WE SERVE" (Go to: Page Menu) Between 1964 and 1965, there was a worldwide epidemic of rubella, also known as German measles. Pregnant women who contracted rubella in the first trimester of their pregnancy could pass the rubella virus to their developing fetus, causing the child to be born deaf, blind, with cardiac problems, developmental delays and other medical conditions. In the United States alone, approximately 20,000 children were born with two or more of these symptoms, which came to be known as congenital rubella syndrome, or CRS. Several thousand of these children were reported to be deaf-blind. Although in March, 2005, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that rubella has been virtually eradicated in the United States, the World Health Organization reports that approximately 100,000 children with CRS continue to be born worldwide every year. Agencies in the U.S. and abroad continue to struggle to provide appropriate medical and programmatic services to these children and adults. The Helen Keller National Center recognizes the challenges and accomplishments of individuals born deaf-blind due to CRS. In March, 2005, we hosted an international symposium on congenital rubella.
