A member asked:
Ive had the mmr and am still not immune to rubella why and should i see my gp for other tests for my immune system?

First repeat the MMR: The MMR was first given in the US after 1971 as a single dose after age 1 yr.By 1990's measles outbreaks at colleges led to addition of a second dose.Antibody screening can suggest the level is not high enough to be protective, but that does not mean you have a bad immune system,just a waning level. You may or may not have received that 2nd dose as a kid, or the batch was not as potent.
