If you are 37 to 69 years old, you may need a measles vaccine. The US is likely to lose its status as having eliminated Measles. Measles is accelerating due to low vaccination rates. (MAHAMA: Make America Healthy Again My Ass!)
If you were born before 1957, we assume you are immune because the infection was so prevalent before the vaccine became available.
People born after 1989 probably have vaccinated on the current schedule of two doses, which was recommended starting in 1989.
