   So I had a measles vaccine when I was a kid.

   I’m now 50. Am I still safe?

     @RandomCanuck @bicmay It’s hard enough to get a doctor’s appointment when you’re literally dying of something. They ain’t going to do that.

     Like, there are plenty of vaccinations I would dearly love to have (let’s start with a Covid booster, then shingles), but I simply cannot get them.

     @goatsarah @bicmay Your doctor can answer that best. If you’re still unsure, revaccinate. It can’t hurt.

     @godzero @bicmay in dual resident in the UK and Portugal and neither is going to give me a measles booster if I just rock up and ask for one. They’ll just tell me to fuck off.

     @godzero @bicmay public health happens on a population level, not an individual level.

     @goatsarah @bicmay
     I thought you were dual resident but didn't realize that neither would give you the vax. That's bonkers considering the outbreaks that are occurring, at least in England.
