If pregnant woman are infected by Rubella, then it can cause a major chance on death. Such as deafness, blindness, cataracts, heart defects, mental retardation, and liver or spleen damage. Sometimes it can cause a 20% chance on affecting the baby with Rubella.

Rubella is transmitted in many different type of ways, the most common way is by Indirect Contact such as sneezing or coughing.
