Is there any overdose, if my child receives this measles vaccine during this month?

FAQs, Ligtas Tigdas (Measles) | Department of Health
NONE. Antibodies in the blood which provide protection against the disease decrease as the child grows older. The child will not be harmed because there is no vaccine overdose for the measles vaccine. The measles vaccine is even known to enhance overall immunity against other diseases.

Why can't we just have the measles vaccine?

FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions about single vaccines and ...

The NHS offers the triple MMR vaccine, therefore we offer a course of single mono component vaccines i.e. Measles, Mumps and Rubella to protect both your child and other children from these diseases. To not offer all three would lessen overall immunity (herd immunity) in the population and endanger children that have an immune system that does not function properly. See similar questions...

What kind of vaccine is given to prevent measles?

NIP: Diseases/Measles/FAQs
The MMR vaccine prevents measles and two other viral diseases - mumps and rubella. These three vaccines are safe given together. MMR is a attenuated (weakened) live virus vaccine. This means that after injection, the viruses grows, and causes a harmless infection in the vaccinated person with very few, if any symptoms. The person's immune system fights the infection caused by these weakened viruses and immunity develops which lasts throughout that person's life. See similar questions...

Frequently Asked Questions About Ozone to the Environmental ...
