Do you have questions about measles (MMR) vaccine recommendations and eligibility?
All individuals, whether or not they are travelling, should ensure they are immunized according to the Publicly Funded Immunization Schedules for Ontario
As per the Canadian Immunization Guide (CIG), the following is recommended prior to travel:
- Infants 6 to 11 months of age: one dose of measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine (two additional doses are required at ≥ 1 year of age).
- Individuals born in or after 1970: two doses of MMR.

To ensure two doses of MMR before travel, children < 4 years of age who have received one dose (according to the routine schedule) should be considered for an early second dose of MMR.
