MMR VACCINE
In response to concerns regarding the rising number of measles cases internationally and the associated risk of measles outbreaks occurring in Ireland, our surgery in now offering MMR Vaccine Catch-Up Programme for our unvaccinated, or incompletely vaccinated patients aged 10 years and younger.
The MMR Vaccine Catch-Up Programme is for those children who did not get the MMR vaccine when it was offered to them at 12 months old, or age 4-+5 years old in junior infants.
Who can get the MMR Vaccine now?
If you child is aged between 14 months and 10 years old and has missed one or both of their MMR Vaccines, they are eligible o receive these now.
How do I access he MMR Vaccine for my child?
Please contact the surgery on 01-4925947 and book your child in with one of the nurses to receive the MMR Vaccine. The vaccine is free. Your child may need one or two doses of the vaccine to be fully vaccinated.
How many vaccines will my child need?
If you child has never received the MMR Vaccine, they will need two doses, one dose now and another dose after one month.
If you child received one dose of MMR Vaccine in the past, they would need one dose of the MMR Vaccine, a month or longer after their last dose.
If you child had already received two doses of he MMR Vaccine they will not need another MMR Vaccine dose.
Why is vaccination important?
The MMR Vaccine protects against the measles, mumps and rubella viruses. Measles is a viral infection and is very contagious. Measles infection can cause serious complications in children, pregnant women and people with weak immune systems. There has been an increase in measles cases internationally and in Europe. In August 2023, there was a small number of measles cases reported in Ireland, the firs outbreak since 2019. The MMR Vaccine provides the best protection against catching measles and preventing outbreaks. If 95 out of 100 people got the two MMR Vaccines, this would prevent measles outbreaks.
