Measles vs MMR Vaccination

2018-03-19 09:13:51
I am supposed to be MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) vaccinated for US visa. However, I have the record of Measles vaccination during my childhood. The record says BCG and Measles vac. given on 02/01/94. Does Measles vac. includes MMR or will I have to take MMR separately? Does immunity from Measles immune you from Mumps and Rubella as well?

Measles vaccine does not contain mumps and rubella. You have to repeat MMR
