  • Title: [Rubella in Poland in 2007].
    Author: Rogalska J, Rzepczak E, Stefanoff P.
    Journal: Przegl Epidemiol; 2009; 63(2):177-80. PubMed ID: 19799240.
    Abstract:
    In Poland, 22,891 cases of rubella were registered in 2007 (incidence 60.1 per 100,000 population), of which 152 (0.7%) cases were laboratory confirmed. No cases of congenital rubella syndrome were reported. The incidence in men (88.7) was 62.5% higher than in women (33.3). The highest incidence was observed in children aged 6 and 7 years (492.8 and 540.5, respectively). No rubella deaths were registered. An improvement in diagnostic certainty of reported cases is necessary to assess the impact of 2-dose immunization implemented in 2003 on rubella epidemiology in Poland.
