The New York rubella incident: a case for changing hospital policy regarding rubella testing and immunization.

M C McLaughlin, L H Gold.   

Abstract

A case of rubella in a male obstetrics-gynecology house staff member exposed 170 staff members and 11 prenatal patients to the clinical disease. Of 163 staff members tested within one week of exposure, 132 (80 per cent) were not susceptibles. Repeat titres three weeks later on 28 susceptibles remained negative. Of the 11 patients exposed, three were susceptible and none seroconverted.
