Improving sensitivity of oral fluid testing in IgG prevalence studies: application of mixture models to a rubella antibody survey [PDF]
A method for the analysis of age-stratified antibody prevalence surveys is applied to a previously reported survey of antibody to rubella virus using oral fluid samples in which the sensitivity of the assay used was shown to be compromised.

A case-control study of autism and mumps-measles-rubella vaccination using the general practice research database: design and methodology. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: An association between mumps-measles-rubella (MMR) vaccination and the onset of symptoms typical of autism has recently been suggested. This has led to considerable concern about the safety of the vaccine.

Cost-effectiveness of measles and rubella elimination in low-income and middle-income countries. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Since 2000, the incidence of measles and rubella has declined as measles-rubella (MR) vaccine coverage increased due to intensified routine immunisation (RI) and supplementary immunisation activities (SIAs).

Rubella immunity among pregnant women aged 15–44 years, Namibia, 2010
Background: The level of rubella susceptibility among women of reproductive age in Namibia is unknown. Documenting the risk of rubella will help estimate the potential burden of disease in Namibian women and the risk of congenital rubella syndrome (CRS ...
