Measles is making a big comeback

Physicians are split over whether adults generally should have a MMR booster, however, if you were vaccinated prior to 1968 you almost certainly do need a booster as the vaccines back then were less effective.

Immunity is known to wane over time, even for those who had the disease. Ask your doctor for a MMR Titer test if you're wondering... or compare the cost of the test vs getting the vaccine and if the vaccine is considerably cheaper then you might as well just get a booster.

Definitely before 1968…
