With recent cases of measles in the community, UMC is urging families to make sure they are fully protected. Measles is a contagious disease that can pose a significant health risk, especially to children and vulnerable individuals. Staying up to date with vaccines is a key step in keeping everyone safe.
UMC emphasizes the importance of making sure you and your family are fully vaccinated with two doses of the MMR vaccine, a combination that protects against measles, mumps, and rubella. This vaccine is recognized as a powerful tool in reducing the spread of these viruses and protecting community health.
If you have any doubts or need guidance on your family’s vaccines, UMC encourages you to reach out to your Primary Care Provider. The team is there to answer questions, provide information, and make sure you’re up to date with your vaccines.
To make an appointment, you can call your Primary Care Provider directly or reach the UMC Clinics at (915) 790-5700. Staying vigilant and fully vaccinating your family helps keep everyone healthy and prevents the further spreading of measles in our community.
