Rubella immunization: Progress, problems and potential solutions

S. Krugman

American Journal of Public Health, 1979, vol. 69, issue 3, 217-219

Abstract: The extraordinary progress and problems associated with the rubella immunization program are essentially the same as those encountered during the measles immunization program. The same 30 to 35% of the childhood population has not received measles vaccine as well as rubella vaccine. Accordingly, measles control programs and rubella control programs should be conducted simultaneously. This strategy could achieve better protection against both diseases, and the cost to deliver these vaccines would be decreased substantially.
