I'm 30 years old & just found out I'm only partially vaccinated against MMR & tetanus (need one more jab of each). Can I get both jabs at the same time? And will it temporarily lower my immune system as a whole? (E.g. more likely to get flu)
I had the MMR vaccine as a child and again after I had my son 2 years ago. Now pregnant again and blood work is showing no MMR vaccine again. Why?
Confused Dad: My son's vaccine schedule calls for Measles (0) vaccine at 6 months, then MMR (1) at 12 months and MMR (2) again at 6 years. Is Measles (0) vaccine necessary at 6 months? A few studies suggest lower protection with early immunization.
Is it normal to have a rash 1 day after a MMR shot for a five year old?
Why is it important that the MMR shot is not given before a child turns one year of age?
