The MMR vaccine is an Immunization given against three types of viruses, measles, mumps and rubella. It is a highly effective vaccine, with approximately 95% of the vaccinated developing immunity to all three virus types. The MMR vaccine is one of the most important vaccines in preventing the spread of these viral diseases, as well as decreasing the severity and frequency with which they occur. It is recommended to be given to children at 12 months of age, with a booster dose at 4 to 6 years old. Furthermore, the vaccine is recommended for adults who have not previously been vaccinated or had the disease and should be administered before or during pregnancy to ensure that the baby has enough protection against measles, mumps and rubella. Through the use of the MMR vaccine, the spread of these viruses is significantly reduced, and whole communities are helped in avoiding the serious health effects that are caused by the diseases.
