What's the matter with rubella virus antibody IgG positive

It can be said that there are no trivial matters in the daily life of pregnant women. They should pay attention to every detail. This will help pregnant women to regulate themselves well and ensure the health of the fetus. However, sometimes during prenatal examinations, if the rubella virus antibody IgG is positive, many pregnant women will be confused. Although most women have been infected with the rubella virus, they should still receive the rubella virus vaccine during pregnancy, especially before six months of pregnancy. This will help produce antibodies against the virus and prevent rubella virus infection, which is important for promoting the good development of the fetus and the health of pregnant women.

Rubella virus antibody positive

If a person is infected with the rubella virus, it will cause very serious harm to the body, especially for pregnant women. If infected with the rubella virus, the chance of fetal malformation will be very high. Therefore, many women will undergo rubella virus tests before preparing for pregnancy, and many women’s diagnosis results are positive for rubella virus antibodies. What’s going on?

When the rubella virus antibody test is positive, many people will think that they are infected with the rubella virus, but this is not the case. The so-called positive rubella virus antibody means that the body has a certain resistance to the virus, proving that it will not be infected with the rubella virus.

Rubella is a relatively common disease in early childhood. Although it is similar to urticaria, it is much milder than urticaria, so it is also called "three-day measles". However, if the virus that causes this disease infects a pregnant woman, it can invade the fetus and cause birth defects, so it has attracted much attention.

If the rubella virus enters the body of a person who has not been infected with the rubella virus, it will cause swelling of lymph nodes throughout the body around the 8th day after invasion; fever has not yet appeared at this time, but from this time on, the virus will appear in the blood (if the person is pregnant, the fetus will be infected at this time); syphilis will also appear in the throat, nose and rectum.

After a child is infected with the rubella virus, about half of them will have a fever at the same time as the rash appears. Although the virus can no longer be detected in the blood at this time, the virus may remain positive in the throat, nose, and stool for 3 weeks. In fact, you are no longer contagious one week after the rash appears. If there is a child nearby who has rubella, when he goes to kindergarten after recovery, pregnant women before 16 weeks of pregnancy should not have contact with him within 3 weeks.

Symptoms of rubella virus IgG positive

Rubella patients are the only source of infection. The infectious period is 5 to 7 days before and 3 to 5 days after onset of the disease. The disease is most contagious on the day of onset and the day before. The virus can be isolated from the patient's oral, nasal, and pharyngeal secretions, as well as blood, urine, etc., so these substances can theoretically transmit rubella.

1. Generally, rubella in children and adults is mainly transmitted by droplets through the respiratory tract, and can also be transmitted through close contact between people.

2. Newborns infected in the womb can excrete the virus, especially in the throat, for weeks, months or even more than a year. Therefore, they can infect medical staff and family members who lack antibodies through contaminated bottles, nipples, clothes, diapers, and direct contact, or cause transmission in the nursery.

3. If a pregnant woman is infected with rubella in the early stage, the rubella virus can infect the fetus through the placenta. Infection of the fetus can cause miscarriage, stillbirth, premature birth, or congenital rubella with multiple congenital malformations.
