Introduction: rubella infection during early pregnancy may result in congenital rubella syndrome (CRS), stillbirth or miscarriage. Children often are the source of infection to their mothers. Routine rubella vaccination is yet to be introduced in Nigeria. We determined the sero-prevalence of rubella-specific antibodies in school children 0-10 years and factors associated with its transmission in Jos.
