Protection through MMR single vaccinations
The MMR vaccine is an injection that prevents you from catching the following three diseases. Measles is an infection which can cause ear infections, pneumonia, fits and encephalitis. Mumps, this can cause meningitis, which can result in deafness. It may cause inflammation of the pancreas, leading to pain, nausea and vomiting. In boys it can damage the testicles and cause infertility. Rubella is also known as German measles and is usually a minor illness. However, it’s harmful to pregnant women. If you become infected during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy, it’s very likely to cause problems in your unborn baby.
There are thousands that believe that the combined MMR vaccinations can lead to problems, notably autism and bowel disease, an opinion that is rejected by the medical authorities. However for those who are concerned, giving their child single MMR vaccinations to prevent the diseases is a far better option than not to have any at all.
For this group who prefer to opt for MMR single vaccines London, it is possible to find a child doctor in London who is prepared to perform this. Giving the measles, mumps and rubella immunisation separately provides an acceptable way of immunising against these three conditions. Above all evidence suggests that almost everyone who has had a successful immunisation is protected against these diseases for life.
