In this presentation:

Our speaker for this program is Dr. Matthew Binnicker from the Division of Clinical Microbiology at Mayo Clinic. Dr. Binnicker will review the epidemiology of rubella and a patient case. Dr. Binnicker will discuss how the conclusion that rubella is no longer endemic in the United States has changed the laboratory approach to diagnosis. As a result of these changes, Mayo Medical Laboratories has discontinued IgM-class antibody testing for rubella.
