Abstract:
:The pattern of seropositivity of rubella obtained through the National Seroepidemiological Survey (NSS) of 1987-1988 is compared with the observed annual patterns of morbidity and with theoretical serological profiles based upon the age-distribution of cases. In spite of a lack of direct correspondence among the NSS results and the ones obtained from morbidity data, a relationship among the patterns and trends is observed. The theoretical methods used for inferring the proportion of seropositives as a function of age provide an inexpensive and fast alternative in order to monitor the current policy of no vaccination against rubella in Mexico.
