MMR Message for Parents
Measles spreads easily and in rare cases can lead to serious illness including ear infections, pneumonia, and inflammation of the brain which require hospitalisation. On very rare occasions infection can lead to long term disability or death.
It is recommended that all children receive 2 doses of the MMR vaccine to give them long-term protection.
If you think your child is not up to date with their MMR vaccinations, please contact the team on 01274 221269 who will be happy to check your child’s vaccination history & if required we can arrange a clinic appointment .
