Measles IgG Antibodies
Measles is a highly contagious viral infection that can lead to severe complications like pneumonia and encephalitis. Measles IgG antibodies are produced by the immune system after a person has been infected with or vaccinated against the measles virus. The presence of these antibodies generally indicates immunity to measles.
Varicella Zoster IgG Antibodies
Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) causes two distinct diseases: chickenpox (varicella) and shingles (herpes zoster). Chickenpox is a common childhood disease, while shingles typically affects older adults. The Varicella Zoster IgG test checks for antibodies produced in response to a VZV infection or vaccination. A positive result generally indicates immunity to VZV, which means the person is protected against chickenpox but can still develop shingles if the dormant virus reactivates.
Rubella IgG Antibodies
Rubella, also known as German measles, is a viral infection that's generally mild in children but can cause serious complications in adults, including severe birth defects if a woman contracts the virus during pregnancy. The Rubella IgG test checks for antibodies that are produced in response to a rubella infection or vaccination. A positive result usually indicates immunity to rubella.
Why to get the immunity MRV test?
Getting the Immunity Screen MRV Test is beneficial for several reasons:
Ensure Immunity: The test allows you to confirm your immunity status against Measles, Rubella, and Varicella Zoster (Chickenpox). Knowing whether you have immunity can provide peace of mind, especially in situations where exposure to these viruses is a concern.
Protect Yourself and Others: By understanding your immunity status, you can take appropriate measures to protect yourself and those around you. If you are found to be non-immune to any of the tested viruses, you can discuss vaccination options with your healthcare provider to ensure your protection and contribute to community health.
Prevent Complications: Measles, Rubella, and Varicella Zoster infections can have serious consequences, especially in certain populations, such as pregnant women or individuals with weakened immune systems. Knowing your immune status can help you take proactive steps to prevent complications associated with these viruses.
Occupational Requirements: Certain professions, such as healthcare workers or educators, may require documentation of immunity against these viruses. The Immunity Screen MRV Test can provide the necessary evidence to meet occupational health requirements.
Family Planning: Rubella, in particular, can pose risks to pregnant women and their unborn babies. Knowing your Rubella immunity status is crucial if you are planning to conceive or if you are in contact with pregnant individuals.
Peace of Mind: Understanding your immune status can provide peace of mind, alleviating concerns about potential infections and their associated risks. It allows you to make informed decisions regarding your health and take appropriate actions to protect yourself and others.
