Rubella virus detection kits

Rubella virus is the only member of the genus of Rubivirus and belongs to the family of Togaviridae. In young children, rubella is usually mild. They may have a fever and a sore throat. Adults are more likely to have a headache, pink eye, general discomfort, and rash. Adults also tend to have more complications, including sore, swollen joints and, less commonly, arthritis, especially in women. Encephalitis is a rare but serious complication that can affect adults with rubella. However, the most serious consequence from rubella infection is the harm it can cause a pregnant woman’s baby.
