A school age girl with rubella should be isolated from an unimmunized:

18 year old sister who has recently married.
4 year old child who lives next door.
14 year old brother who had rubella as a child.
21 year old brother living at home.

Explanation

Answer: A - An unimmunized woman like 18 year old sister who has recently got married and is exposed to rubella virus is at a higher risk. If she contracts the disease it may be transmitted to her fetus once she got pregnant. Option b has a lesser effect as it would probably be mild and confer immunity.
