Just got a MMR vaccine yesterday.

I was born in '86, and according to my doctor the standard back then was for one MMR shot. Later (in '89 or '90) they stepped up to two shots, which offered better immunity.

Just a heads up for anyone else in that age range, especially if you live near a big travel hub (we're awfully close to Denver International Airport).

"Mar 9, 2025
Today on ELLA, Dr. Haydee Brown and Dr. Sonya Sloan discuss the worst measles outbreak the U.S. has had in years, with Texas at the center of the crisis. An unvaccinated child has tragically died, yet HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is pushing alternative treatments like steroids and cod liver oil instead of the proven solution: vaccination. Dr. Brown and Dr. Sloan break down why Kennedy’s response is not just wrong but also dangerous—putting millions of unvaccinated people at risk.
ELLA [eh-yah] uses the Spanish pronoun for “She" or “Her," and this show celebrates Black and Brown Women disruptors, spotlighting empowered women in medicine and beyond, sharing their stories, achievements, and the impact they are making."

Global Measles Cases Rose 20% in 1 Year as Vaccine Coverage Fell Short
Measles cases worldwide rose by 20% in a single year—from about 8.6 million in 2022 to 10.3 million in 2023, which the World Health Organization (WHO) and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) attributed to insufficient immunization coverage.

In a joint report, the 2 agencies also noted that first-dose measles-containing vaccine coverage dropped from 86% in 2019 to 81% in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic, the lowest reported level since 2008. In both 2022 and 2023, only an estimated 83% of individuals had received the first dose of the vaccine.
Large or disruptive measles outbreaks affected 57 countries in 2023, spanning all regions except the Americas—an increase from 36 countries the previous year. Meanwhile, measles deaths decreased 8%, from about 117 000 in 2022 to 108 000 in 2023, likely because more cases occurred in countries with low risk of death.
Communities should aim for at least 95% coverage with 2 vaccine doses to prevent outbreaks, the #WHO and #CDC stated, but low-income nations and those experiencing conflict are less likely to achieve this goal.
