Measles can spread quickly once it reaches a community, but the MMR vaccine helps provide strong protection.
The MMR vaccine protects against measles, mumps, and rubella and is the best way to prevent measles and its complications. Staying up to date on vaccination also helps limit the opportunity for measles to spread to others.
Not sure if you or your child are up to date? Check your vaccination records and talk with your healthcare provider or contact the Moultrie County Health Department for more information.
