Rubella virus: Virus exposures can elevate IgM antibodies (showing recent exposure to the rubella virus) or with previous exposure, provide IgG antibody positives. The critical element with rubella is whether exposure occurred during an early pregnancy. "Re-testing" is done to see if the IgM antibodies are rising, indicating if pregnant whether the chance for fetal infection is present.
