measles?

[Ginger]

Can a 3 yr old child still get measles even if they are vaccinated? Tia

[LimeSlice]

Yes, anyone can still get any illness they have been vaccinated against. Vaccination is not 100% effective. Ever.

[Ginger]

Ok thanks. On my way to the hospital now

DD2 had suspected measles, the only way they could confirm it was via a blood test which I declined.

olive if your kids are ever sick on a weekend, the after hours gp next to the angliss is amazing. no wait at all, doctors are really thorough and it's free.
