Vaccination Is the Best Protection Against Measles Consumer Update

On Mach 1, the FDA reminded consumers that measles is not a harmless childhood disease in the Vaccination Is the Best Protection Against Measles Consumer Update. Measles is dangerous and can be life-threatening. Our most effective public health measure against measles is prevention with a measles vaccine. Vaccines approved by the FDA for the prevention of measles are proven both safe and effective. Most people who get the recommended two doses of a vaccine to prevent measles will have lifelong protection and will never get sick with measles, even if they’re exposed to the virus.
