John, FWIW, I've been reading that those over 55 are much less prone to get
the measles.
No I'm not a medical person but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express !

Subject: OT: Another stupid question ...
... but I know there are medical professionals on the list who might know
the answer.
I'm almost 70 years old, and I'm pretty sure I DID NOT receive the measles
vaccine as a child. I had measles while I was in grade school *before* the
vaccine became available. But all the stuff about measles in the news
lately has me wondering ...
How long does immunity last after you've had measles?
Should I get a measles vaccination at this late date?
Is there a problem if you HAVE been previously vaccinated for measles (I
got so damn many shots before I went to Iraq in 2004 that I don't remember
what half of them were for)?
