10. Protection and Prevention
Thanks to advanced medicine it is now possible to protect yourself from contracting measles. The MMR vaccine is the best form of protection. The vaccine is administered in two doses; the first dose at 12 to 15 months of age and a second dose at 4 to 6 years of age. Fortunately, this vaccine provides long-lasting protection and has drastically reduced the number of cases in the U.S.
