The only protection against measles is the MMR vaccine. The MMR vaccine is a free, safe, and effective vaccine which protects you from catching and spreading measles. There are two different types of MMR vaccine available in the UK. Some vaccines are made using pork gelatine in very small amounts. The Priorix MMR vaccine does not contain pork gelatine, this can be requested from the GP.
