When i was pregnant with my son in 1986... i was told that i was a carrier of rubella. what does that mean? i have not been able to find such language

Odd statement: No one carries rubella like you might strep or some other bacteria. You become infected with it and your body fights it off, resulting in permanent immunity. You will carry antibodies showing you had it in the past. Perhaps this is what they meant.
