世界卫生组织（WHO）欧洲区域办事处最近发布了麻疹和先天性风疹感染的战略计划和监测指南。该战略将麻疹控制活动列为优先事项，但鼓励在麻疹疫苗覆盖率达到90%以上时接种风疹疫苗;尽管许多麻疹疫苗覆盖率不佳的西欧国家已经在使用麻疹、腮腺炎和风疹联合疫苗。在这些国家的妇女可能有一个特别高的风险有一个婴儿先天性风疹综合征。世卫组织正在努力改善风疹和先天性风疹综合征的监测，以获得关于这些疾病负担的更好信息，并使决策者参与支持世卫组织欧洲区域风疹战略的必要性。
The World Health Organisation (WHO) Regional Office for Europe has recently published a strategic plan and surveillance guidelines for measles and congenital rubella infection. The strategy prioritises measles control activities but encourages the introduction of rubella vaccine when measles vaccine coverage has reached >90 %; although, many western European countries with suboptimal measles vaccine coverage are already using the combined measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Women in these countries may have an especially high risk of having an infant with congenital rubella syndrome. WHO is seeking to improve the surveillance for rubella and congenital rubella syndrome as a means to obtain better information on the burden of these diseases and engage policy decision makers in the need to support the WHO European Region's strategies for rubella.
