Abstract

The intensity of post-vaccination immunity to measles and rubella in students of medical educational institutions of the Republic of Tatarstan was studied. The study revealed the improved collective immunity to measles in this age group. At the same time, selective seromonitoring showed an excess of the values of seronegative individuals to the measles virus compared with the indicator of epidemiological well-being. In order to prevent the occurrence and spread of measles, rubella and to implement measures to eliminate endemic measles in the Russia, it is recommended to carry out additional revaccination of persons with no protective titers of antibodies to measles and rubella viruses, as well as to continue conducting research of collective immunity to this infection in this age group.
