Vaccines (needles or baby shots) are the best way to protect against some very serious infections. The Canadian Paediatric Society and the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) strongly recommend routine immunization. The MMR vaccine is a three-in-one needle that protects against measles, mumps and rubella (German measles).
Vaccination against measles, mumps and rubella is required by law for all children attending school in Ontario (unless exempted).
For more information on MMR please refer to the Useful Link on the right.
