Residents can visit measlesvax.chicago.gov and find where to get vaccinated against measles. The Chicago Department of Public Health announced the launch of a new web-based application that helps Chicago residents locate where they can receive the Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccine. Amid measles outbreaks in the U.S. and internationally, Chicago residents are encouraged to review their immunization records, and use the new tool to find locations and receive the MMR vaccine if they are not up to date. The MMR vaccine finder is an interactive map of locations where residents can be vaccinated. The application provides directions to the closest location and additional information, including operating hours and phone numbers. For more information about measles, contact your health care provider or visit www.chicago.gov/measles.
