Do adults need boosters for rubella? i had a rubella vaccine as a child, but am traveling to an area of the world where its prevalent. do i need some sort of booster, or am i still immune?

Grown-ups : Grown-ups need to keep vaccinations and booster shots current -- just like kids do. Your doctor has to bloodwork to check.

Maybe: Vaccines produce long term immunity to many viral illnesses but some like the rubella, may not hold at a protective level. The MMR which is the main rubella vaccine in the US since the late 70's, did not get a childhood booster dose routinely until the 90's, after clusters of cases on college campuses.Now OB's routinely check rubella antibodies on women to make sure their level is okay.Get a test.
