There is currently an outbreak of Measles in Texas and, as of February 26, 2025, there is a known case of an infected person in Rockwall County. It is our recommendation that patients between the ages of 6 months - 23 months schedule an appointment to receive a dose of the MMR vaccine, and patients 24 months and up schedule an appointment to receive a dose of the MMRV vaccine. There will need to be at least 4 weeks between this dose of MMR and any other live vaccine. Please call our office to schedule.

Protection can take up to 2 weeks after having the MMR vaccine. After 2 doses, around 99% of people will be protected against measles and rubella.

Measles: "A viral infection that's serious for small children but is easily preventable by a vaccine.

The disease spreads through the air by respiratory droplets produced from coughing or sneezing.

Measles symptoms don't appear until 10 to 14 days after exposure. They include cough, runny nose, inflamed eyes, sore throat, fever, and a red, blotchy skin rash.

Measles can also lead to more severe issues, including pneumonia, encephalitis, brain damage, and pregnancy complications. Complications of measles can occur in anyone, including in healthy children and adults.

There's no treatment to get rid of an established measles infection, but over-the-counter fever reducers or vitamin A may help with symptoms."
