Rubella (German measles) 
Rubella has nothing to do with measles, despite its common
name (“German measles”). It is a viral illness that primarily affects
the skin and lymph nodes, and causes a mild rash in small
children. The main concern with German measles is if it affects a
pregnant woman; rubella in a pregnant woman may cause severe
defects in the developing foetus. German measles is caused by
the rubella virus. It is transmitted via airborne particles from the
sick person.
