I read that too. So what does this mean? I must have had measles shot when I was a kid. So I'm good?

If you didn't get a booster, then probably safe to get one.ubercow wrote: ↑Thu Jan 31, 2019 8:15 amfrom what I heard if it's been a while, it's worth getting againcabanalane wrote: ↑Thu Jan 31, 2019 5:52 am I read that too.

Re: Measles Outbreak
For the old farts out there, it depends on what year you were born. Anyone born prior to 1957 should be okay, but if you were vaccinated before 1968, a booster shot is probably a good idea.Irse wrote: ↑Wed Feb 06, 2019 4:50 amIf you didn't get a booster, then probably safe to get one.ubercow wrote: ↑Thu Jan 31, 2019 8:15 amfrom what I heard if it's been a while, it's worth getting againcabanalane wrote: ↑Thu Jan 31, 2019 5:52 am I read that too.
