Article Excerpts about Measles
Measles, mumps, and rubella were once very common diseases in the
United States, but they have become rare because of the use of
vaccines to prevent them. As with many other diseases, measles,
mumps, and rubella generally are more severe in adults than in
children. Most adults are immune to all three infections because
they had them (or a vaccine) as children. (Source: excerpt from Shots for Safety - Age Page - Health Information: NIA)
