With regard to rubella and Rh issues, nurses should be aware that:
 
  a. Breastfeeding mothers cannot be vaccinated with the live attenuated rubella virus.
  b. Women should be warned that the rubella vaccination is teratogenic and that they must avoid pregnancy for 1 month after vaccination.
  c. Rh immune globulin is safely administered intravenously because it cannot harm a nursing infant.
  d. Rh immune globulin boosts the immune system and thereby enhances the effec-tiveness of vaccinations.

A Because the live attenuated rubella virus is not communicable in breast milk, breastfeeding mothers can be vaccinated.
B Women should understand they must practice contraception for 1 month after being vaccinated.
C Rh immune globulin is administered intramuscularly; it should never be given to an infant.
D Rh immune globulin suppresses the immune system and therefore might thwart the rubella vaccination.
