Are you protected against measles?
The 15-30 age-group has been identified as an at-risk group for measles, as many were not fully immunised as children. This puts you at risk of catching and spreading measles.
Ask your doctor, parent or caregiver if you had two doses of the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine as a child.
If you don’t know, it’s best to get immunised. It’s safe to have an extra dose of the MMR vaccine.
Some other countries only immunise against measles and rubella. So, even if you were immunised against measles overseas, make sure you get your free MMR in New Zealand so that you’re protected from mumps too.
As part of Youth Week, a pop-up measles clinic will take place at My Space at the Marlborough Youth Trust from 6pm-8pm on Friday evening, May 14.
