    Abstract:
    Measles, rubella and epidemic parotitis are classified as controllable infections with vaccination of children being the key method of preventing them. Live mono-vaccines and combined vaccines against measles and epidemic parotitis have been developed and successfully used in our country; research work on creating preparations against rubella has been underway. The vaccine-based prevention of the above viral infections is shown to be a most active, safe, effective and cost-saving method preventing them. There is also described in the paper an analysis of the morbidity rate due to measles, rubella and epidemic parotitis in the territory of the Russian Federation and elucidated the resolved and yet unsettled issues related with the vaccine-based prevention of the above widespread and highly contagious infections of today.
