Abstract
To assess the rubella immune status of a cohort of high-risk pregnant women visiting a Midwestern clinic, we retrospectively studied 50 random pregnancies per year from 1990 through 1996. Of 350 patients analyzed, 53 (15.1%) were not immune to rubella, and vaccination opportunities were missed.Keywords
