Abstract

 Congenital Rubella Syndrome affects nearly 110000 infants every year and is one of the most important preventable causes of congenital anomalies in children. The Measles Rubella Initiative along with its partners has chalked out a Global Strategic Plan to combat rubella along with measles and aims to eliminate both the diseases by 2020 in at least five WHO Regions. India is also committed to eliminating Rubella by 2020 and has laid down steps to combat this disease. 

Keywords: Congenital Rubella Syndrome; Rubella-Containing Vaccines (RCV); Measles and Rubella (MR); Measles; Mumps and Rubella (MMR).
