Can you get measles if you've had 1 MMR jab?
When you get the MMR, your body is supposed to be immune to the measles due to developing an antibody (like a cell marker) to be on standby of the virus measles ever returns. Sometimes, people do get the measles or mumps even though they have had the vaccine: My child had a bad case of Measles even though he had the MMR vaccine over a year earlier. I've read that only 95% of children are protected after the first MMR jab, and this increases to 99% after the second. I had the measles & mumps vaccinations when I was a kid (individual and separate doses) and I still developed mumps when I was 8 and measles when I was 13. The shots don't necessarily work. In fact, I think they are potentially more dangerous than the diseases themself. I recovered fully and had no ill effects from the diseases. ______________________________________________________________ I knew someone who had had the MMR vaccine and she still caught measles when my area had an outbreak of it because her immune system was weak. I got measles too but I hadn't had the jab because measles isn't nomally life-threatening nowadays and it helps to strenghten your immune system. Later there was an outbreak of slapped cheek in my class and I was about the only one who didn't get it.
Why was a Disneyland attraction in California in the news in early March 2015?
The event actually happened in December, 2014. A visitor to the park in mid-December had never been vaccinated for Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR which is given to babies in 3 doses / boosters). That person began a measles outbreak when they went to the park and spread measles through the crowd."Although the person who started the outbreak has not yet been identified, officials suspect it began with an infected person from abroad who visited the Disneyland theme park in southern Californiain mid- to late December. Since then, there have been 145 confirmed measles cases in seven states and three countries linked to the Disneyland outbreak, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)." (See: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/mar/17/measles-california-disneyland-vaccination-research )The incident showcased how easily a communicable disease can spread, and how parents need to vaccinate their babies / toddlers. "Though the national vaccination rate for the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine is around 92%, there are communities with pockets of under-vaccinated or unvaccinated children, where an outbreak is much more likely to take hold."
