No: Rubella (german measles) - symptoms
typical symptoms of rubella are a mild rash , swollen and tender glands (especially behind the ear, at the back of the neck, and under the skull), and a slight fever. Also, some adolescent girls and adult women get joint pain (arthritis), especially in the small joints of the hands.
