CDC Recommendations at This Level

Vaccination rates are below the safe threshold

  • Your state is below the 95% MMR coverage needed for herd immunity
  • This means your community is more vulnerable if measles is introduced
  • Verify your family's vaccination status and get caught up if needed
  • Talk to your pediatrician if you have questions about vaccine safety

This is general public health guidance based on CDC recommendations — not personal medical advice. Talk to your healthcare provider about what's right for you and your family.
