* Agatha Christie's The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side features a plot, possibly based on real life, in which a girl is shut up in quarantine for a minor illness but climbs out of the window to meet a celebrity. The celebrity is pregnant and unknowingly catches rubella resulting in a child with congenital rubella syndrome. However, as this is the fan's favourite anecdote, when she meets the celebrity years later she tells her the story and the celebrity realises that her baby's syndrome was caused by this fan.
* In Making Fiends, Vendetta makes a friend named Rubella.
