Shiite!
I have to go to Mexico a few times a year as part of my job. I was vaccinated against all measles varieties back in the '60's.
Do I need a booster shot?

"The vaccine is not recommended for adults who have had the measles, have received two doses of the vaccine or were born before 1957."
I doubt you need the vaccine, LibKill.
