MMR Vaccine Booster Question

[Nickthegreek]

Hi,

Maybe be a Question Sheryl can kindly answer !

I have given My daughter all of the recommended vaccines in Thailand but It seems that the Mrs and I forgot the MMR booster.! her school has just offered that booster for free, as My daughter is now 6 and a half and the rate of non take is so low 2-5 % should We allow it to be administered ?

Thanks

A bit off topic, and it won't help you much but might be value information for others:

For most vaccine you can check the amount of antibodies you have. It happens that some vaccine doesn't work at all (Hepatitis B for me) or works way better than expected (Meningoenzephalitis I am off the scale).

On both I don't need any refresh vaccine....one won't work anyway and on the other I am immune anyway.

checking the antibody titer helps to avoid vaccinations that aren't necessary without any risk.

Unless your daughter has some specific contraindication (like an immune deficiency), certainly should get this.
