Evidence suggests that measles immunity fades about 10-15 years after vaccination. If it's been more than 10 years since your MMR, or you can't find the latest record of vaccination, update your shot.

And WEAR A MASK. Measles is one of the most contagious diseases of all time. There is NO reason to expose yourself when a KN95/N95 mask offers so much protection.
