If your family is planning to travel internationally to any country, the CDC now recommends babies ages 6 to 11 months should have one dose of the MMR vaccine to prevent measles at least two weeks before travel. Children 12 months and older should have two doses of the MMR vaccine before international travel. Depending on your travel destination and the activities you have planned, other vaccines may also be recommended.

Measles is back in the news again after a recent outbreak in a Florida school. The virus is wildly contagious and young children are especially vulnerable.

If your child isn’t old enough to be vaccinated, there are other ways to protect them if an outbreak occurs in your community.
