The Guilford County Division of Public Health will offer the MMR vaccine to residents of all ages at the Hayes-Taylor Memorial YMCA mobile clinic in Greensboro on Wednesday, May 14 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
The MMR vaccine is a safe and effective way to protect individuals, especially children, from three potentially serious diseases: measles, mumps and rubella.
Who Should Get the MMR Vaccine:
- Children starting at 12-15 months, with a second dose at 4-6 years
- Unvaccinated teens and adults without prior immunity
- National and international travelers
- Those traveling to outbreak areas
The mobile clinic also will offer COVID-19 vaccinations, flu vaccinations, mpox vaccinations and blood pressure checks.
Residents are asked to bring their health insurance, Medicaid, Medicare or Medicare Supplement information as well as immunization records if available. No appointment is necessary and walk-ins are welcome.
