#Measles is a highly #contagious respiratory illness that can be life-threatening to anyone who is not protected against the #virus.

Doctors say the best way to protect against the #disease is with 2 doses of a #vaccine, which is usually administered to children as a combination measles-mumps-rubella, or #MMR, vaccine. 2 doses of the MMR vaccine prevent more than 97% of measles infections, acc/to #Texas #health ofcls.
