Shabnam SheikhMom of 2 children4 years agoA. hi...In case your baby is more than a year old, the MMR vaccine can be administered to him if the measles outbreak is detected within 72 hours since the infection. The MMR vaccine is an acronym for measles, mumps, and rubella.
If the baby is less than a year old, usage of the MMR vaccine is forbidden in most cases. In such a scenario, if the infection has been detected under 72 hours, an IG injection might be administered to the child. This injection contains immunoglobulin antibodies that help the baby fight against the virus.
Neither MMR nor IG injections can be administered if the baby is less than 6 months old.
