Abstract
The incidence of rubella decreased from 0.45 per 100,000 in 1990 to 0.1 per 100,000 in 1999. Although there is a nationwide shortage of rubella vaccine, women who are rubella susceptible during pregnancy should receive MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccination postpartum. In October 2001, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention changed the recommendations concerning the pregnancy interval after receiving rubella vaccine. This interval has been reduced from 3 months to 1 month.
