It’s not good that they’re running out but it’s great that so many people are getting their kids vaccinated that they run out.
Exactly. Every vaccinated person is another unlikely vector to pass the disease along further, and we’re all better for it.
If only there was some kind of preventative treatment we could give people so they could never get sick from the measles to begin with…
Better late than never, I suppose?
Oh oh…we’re fucked.
So if my kids have had the MMR are they good? How about myself if I had it as a kid?
Depends on when you got it. They are worried about people who got it in the late 60s to early 90s, since I think they were doing a one dose vaccine then. MMR since then is a double dose and lasts for life. If you’re 35+ you should check with a doctor to see if you need a booster.

You don’t have to assume the worst and jump to the most hateful conclusion.
A lot of people in my age group are getting boosters because there was a period (maybe 1967-71 or something like that) when some people got one instead of two shots and there were two different vaccines used, one that was more effective than the other.
