Measles, Mumps and Rubella vaccination (MMR)
Measles is a highly infectious disease that can cause brain damage and death. Measles is easily prevented by two doses of the Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccine.
Many people born after 1966 are not properly protected against measles. If you're not sure if you have received two doses of the vaccine, it's safe to get a third dose. Ask your doctor to check your vaccination record.
