The measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine is one of the most studied vaccines
and millions of doses are given every year.
As your child starts school, we recommend that they have had two doses of the MMR
vaccine to ensure they are fully protected, as the complications of measles can be
severe and life changing. You will also be protecting them against mumps and rubella,
which can also be serious illnesses.
Measles cases are rising in the North West so it is important that you check your child’s
red book to see if they have had their pre-school booster vaccine and two doses of
MMR. If not, contact your GP surgery to make an appointment.
This year your child will also be eligible for a free nasal flu vaccine and this will be
offered to them at their school during the autumn term.
