Getting your MMR vaccination – audio invitation
Update: 2024-05-23
Description
Your GP record suggests you may not have had 2 doses of the MMR vaccine. You need both doses for long-term protection against measles, mumps and rubella.
It's now quicker and easier for you to catch up. You can book an appointment with your GP surgery, or you may be able to get your free MMR vaccine at some community pharmacies in certain areas. You can check if pharmacies are offering MMR vaccine walk-ins in your local area using the links at the top of this web page.
You do not need to do anything if you’ve already had 2 doses. Please check your vaccination history in the NHS App, or you can contact your GP surgery if you’re not sure.
The NHS offers MMR vaccination because these infections spread easily between people. They can lead to serious problems including meningitis, blindness, hearing loss and risks during pregnancy. It’s important you get fully vaccinated because measles cases are increasing in England. MMR vaccination is the most effective way to protect yourself. It also helps protect people who cannot be vaccinated, such as unborn babies, newborn babies and anyone with a weakened immune system.
