Should You Get A Measles Vaccine Booster? Here's What To Know.

As yanked from the internets:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that anyone vaccinated between 1957 and 1968 get at least one dose of the live vaccine. (Measles was so widespread prior to the 1960s that people born before 1957 are assumed to have natural immunity.)

I remember being called down to the nurse's station in high school in the late 1970s being told they were given boosters to kids my age because of the above. So if you're of a certain age as noted above and don't recall getting a booster, you may want to check out your levels.
