I’m in my 40s. The standard vaccination protocol when I was a kid was only two shots. The recommended course now includes a second round of two boosters later in childhood if I’m not mistaken.
I’ve booked an appointment with my local community health vaccination clinic to discuss getting some boosters. I get to sit down with a vaccine specialist and discuss the pros as well as any potential for side effects (would have to be worse than GETTING MEASLES to talk me out of it).
If anyone in Alberta isn’t clear on how to check their vaccination status, how to connect with their community health network, or is looking for information, please feel free to reach out. I’m not an expert, but I can help you connect with qualified health resources.
Rubella is commonly known as German measles. It was a big thing to be vaxxed for back when I was a kid, cause it’s super dangerous to pregnant women and unborn children.

But also make sure you’re vaccinated.
Please people.
Get vaccinated.

Got me the full course MMR in my later adult life.
I will not be getting any measly mumps or rubella, whatever that is.
