Know about Rubella Vaccination Rubella is a highly transmissible viral infection that is caused by the rubella virus. The rubella virus is spread through the air or by close contact with an infected person. It can cause a mild illness with fever and a rash, but it can also cause more serious difficulties, especially if contracted during pregnancy. Rubella vaccination is a highly effective way to prevent the spread of rubella and its associated complications. The vaccine is safe for most people, but some people may experience mild side effects such as fever, rash, or soreness at the injection site. Rubella vaccination is especially important for women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. Rubella infection during pregnancy can lead to serious complications such as miscarriage, stillbirth, or birth defects. Women who are not vaccinated against rubella should be vaccinated before becoming pregnant. To know more about it contact Dr. Rekha Agrawal at Advance Ortho And Gynae Centre in Indore.
