This paper contains abstracts from publications of the late Sir Norman McAlister Gregg, published in 1941 and 1944, in which he demonstrated the association between rubella in pregnancy and defects in the baby. Besides cataract and retinopathy with which ophthalmologists are familiar, there occur deafness, deafmutism, cardiac defects, mental retardation, pulmonary and renal abnormalities and diabetes.
