Rubella virus failed to replicate in mosquitoes (Aedes albopictus and Culex fatigans) following parenteral inoculation. The virus demonstrated in mosquitoes tested immediately after inoculation but was not detected in insects sampled 7, 14 and 21 days postinoculation. This experiment provides further evidence that rubella is not an arbovirus, but does not invalidate its classification as a togavirus.
风疹病毒经肠胃外接种后未能在蚊子（白纹伊蚊和致倦库蚊）体内复制。在接种后立即检测的蚊子体内发现了该病毒，但在接种后7天、14天和21天采集的昆虫样本中未检测到。该实验进一步证明风疹不是虫媒病毒，但这并不否定其被归类为披膜病毒。
