MMRV is now part of the NHS routine childhood vaccination programme, replacing the MMR vaccine.
It protects against measles, mumps, rubella and chickenpox.
Chickenpox is very common and can sometimes lead to serious complications, so vaccination helps reduce the risk of serious illness as children grow.
You don’t need to do anything — your GP practicewill be in touch when your child is due.

ICB CHECKING PATIENT'S ADDRESSES

The NHS North East and Cumbria ICB (our Health Authority) and PCSE (Primary Care Support England) which deal with patient records often check with patients if they are still living at the same address if a letter has been returned to screening invites, ie breast or bowel screening or the patient hasn't responded. If you receive a letter from them and you are still living at that address, you must contact them and not us to confirm this otherwise they will remove you from our list.

Thank you.

This replaces the existing MMR vaccine and adds protection against chickenpox, alongside measles, mumps and rubella.
