MMR VACCINE
According to mBio, "measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine has been theorized to protect against the coronavirus and may also reduce the severity of COVID19 infection. The below study demonstrates that there is a significant inverse correlation between mumps titers from MMR and COVID19 severity.
Traditionally, children get two doses MMR vaccine, starting with the first dose at 12 to 15 months of age, and the second dose at 4 through 6 years of age. That being said, children greater than a year old who are infected with COVID-19 will likely experience minimal complications, and even fewer complications if they are older than 6 years old. Women of childbearing age should check with their doctor to make sure they are vaccinated before they get pregnant. Women of childbearing age who are not pregnant and do not have presumptive evidence of immunity should get at least one dose of MMR vaccine. It is safe for breastfeeding women to receive MMR vaccination. Breastfeeding does not interfere with the response to the MMR vaccine, and the baby will not be affected by the vaccine through breast milk.
