MMR protection for all ages

MMR protects against measles, mumps and rubella. These viruses spread easily through coughs and close contact. Two doses provide strong, long lasting protection for most people across all ages.

Children are offered MMR at 12 months, then at around 3 years 4 months. Adults who missed doses can catch up at any time. Travellers should check they have two documented doses before trips.

Side effects are usually mild. You may get a sore arm, a mild fever, or a light rash. A fever can appear about a week after the vaccine. Serious allergic reactions are rare. Tell us about allergies before your appointment.

MMR is a live vaccine. It is not given in pregnancy or for people with some health conditions that affect the immune system. If you are unwell with a high temperature, wait until you recover.

How the schedule works

Two doses give the best protection. If your child or you missed a dose, we can plan a catch up safely and clearly. Keep records for school, work and travel.

  • First dose at 12 months
  • Second dose at around 3 years 4 months
  • Adults need two doses at least one month apart
  • Safe to give if your records are unclear
  • We provide reminders for the next dose

Travel, school and work checks

Measles outbreaks can happen during travel or in community settings. Make sure your MMR is up to date before holidays, university starts, or new jobs that involve close contact.
