Rubella is a mild contagious viral infection which primarily affects the skin and lymph nodes causing a pinkish-red rash that first appears on the face, and later spreads elsewhere on the body. The virus runs its course in about three days and is often called three-day-measles.
The Rubella test may be done to determine whether the patient has sufficient rubella antibodies to protect against a rubella virus infection, to verify a past infection or to detect a recent infection of the virus.
