Generally not. Most doctors will keep your vaccination record and recommend booster shots whenever necessary. On the whole, as long as you follow your doctor's recommendations, your chance of encountering measles is pretty low.

It is possible to get measles even if you have been vaccinated, but the chances are significantly lower compared to those who are unvaccinated. The measles vaccine is highly effective, with two doses being about 97% effective at preventing the disease. If a vaccinated person does contract measles, it is usually milder and has fewer complications.

What is actually injected into your body when you are vaccinated against the measles?

When vaccinated against measles, a person receives a dose of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine, which typically contains a weakened form of the measles virus. This live attenuated virus prompts the immune system to recognize and fight against the actual virus if encountered in the future. Additionally, the vaccine may contain stabilizers and preservatives to maintain its effectiveness and safety. The injection stimulates the body to build immunity without causing the disease.
