Children typically receive the measles vaccine, part of the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine, twice. The first dose is usually administered between 12 and 15 months of age, and the second dose is given between 4 and 6 years old. It's important to follow the recommended vaccination schedule to ensure proper immunity. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice and updates on vaccination guidelines.

Can you be a carry of the Measles?

Hey there! If you had the measles jabs, you should be good to go with no measles infection due to the lifelong immunity. Also, many research papers have proven that it has no link to autism or turning anyone gay. It is all humbug. And there is also plenty of proof that it is super effective against the virus. I had my measles jabs and I have never in my entire life got any measles symptoms. Hopefully, this response was useful for you! 😄 Please get vaccinated!

Normal measles is caused by the Rubeola virus. You most likely got vaccinated for it as a child - it's a part of the MMR (measles mumps rubella) vaccine.

If a child is homeschooled are childhood vaccinations required?

The laws vary with your location. Many universities require proof of childhood vaccinations. Shots are not required even for a child entering public schools. The requirement is either for proof of vaccinations or for the parent to sign a release form stating they do not wish for their child to be vaccinated. This is occurring more frequently around the country.


What do vaccines prevent?

Vaccines prevent only the infectious diseases that they were made to prevent. For example, a vaccine for one type of flu will prevent that type of flu, but you may still get other types if you are not also vaccinated for them. This is why the seasonal flu vaccine usually contains vaccine for the three most likely types of flu that are expected to circulate at the next flu season. There are vaccines for the various types of influenza, for other viral diseases like measles, mumps and polio and for a very limited number of bacterial disease such as one common type of bacterial pneumonia. See the related questions below for more information about how vaccines work.

Why do children get vaccinations?

Children are vaccinated against several diseases: polio, smallpox, to name two, in order to create antibodies in their blood. These antibodies will help to fight off any attack in the future by the polio, smallpox viruses. <><><><><><><><><><><><><> To add to the very good answer above- I am an old guy (great grandfather) When I was a child, there were many diseases that you could catch- measles, chicken pox, polio, diphtheria, typhus, smallpox- and each year, children died from those diseases. Being vaccinated against those diseases keeps you from catching those diseases- and that means that children do not die, but live to grow up.
