What are Measles, Mumps and Rubella ?
Children and adults who haven’t been vaccinated or have missed a dose are advised to receive an MMR booster for complete protection. This is especially important for adults with weakened immune systems or women planning to become pregnant.
What is Measles?
Measles is a highly contagious virus that spreads through coughs and sneezes. It often starts with fever, cough, runny nose, and red eyes – followed by a distinct rash that spreads across the body.
While most recover, measles can lead to serious complications like pneumonia, encephalitis (brain swelling), and, in rare cases, death – especially in young children and those with weakened immune systems.
The good news? The MMR vaccine offers powerful protection, helping to prevent measles and its complications. Stay safe. Stay protected.
What is Mumps?
Mumps is a contagious virus that causes swelling in the salivary glands, leading to the telltale “chipmunk cheeks” and discomfort in the jaw. It spreads through coughs, sneezes, and close contact.
Symptoms often include fever, headache, muscle aches, and fatigue. While most cases are mild, mumps can lead to complications like orchitis (testicle inflammation), oophoritis (ovary inflammation), and, in rare cases, meningitis or encephalitis.
The best defense? The MMR vaccine – highly effective in preventing mumps and its complications. Stay protected. Stay healthy.
What is Rubella?
Rubella, or German measles, is a contagious virus that spreads through coughs and sneezes. It’s usually mild, causing a light rash, low fever, swollen glands, and sometimes joint pain.
For most, it’s a short-lived illness. But for pregnant women, rubella can be serious – potentially causing birth defects or miscarriage.
The best way to prevent it? The MMR vaccine, offering strong protection against rubella and its complications. Safe. Effective. Essential.
