title: Rubella among Hispanic adults--Kansas, 1998, and Nebraska, 1999.
abstract: Since 1994, the incidence of rubella has been low; most reported rubella cases have been associated with outbreaks (1,2). Recent outbreaks have occurred primarily among adult Hispanics, many of whom are natives of countries where rubella vaccination is not routine or has been implemented recently (1). This report describes two workplace-associated outbreaks of rubella and summarizes the characteristics of the recent outbreaks in the United States.
