Previously we were giving measles vaccine at 9 months of age. As cases of mumps and rubella are rising at early age, hence now we are giving MMR ( measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine at 9 months in place of only measles. It is recommended by Indian academy pediatrics.Its better to give adequate coverage than inadequate one.
