I know.

So, no, I don't think there's a need for a booster.

There is a specific group that would.

And that is I need to pull them up.

I was just writing about this.

Oh, there you go.

So, yeah, I mean, I think between that time period, yeah, you should go get a booster.

Um, the, uh, what was I going to, I just lost my train of thought, but, but, oh, the other question a lot of people are having right now is titers.

Like, should I go check my antibody levels?

And the, I'm saying no.

And the reason for that is antibody levels are just a small piece of the immunity protection.

We have B cells and we have T cells as well.

that those titers won't pick up.

And these B cells are actually incredibly important with measles because measles actually, once you're infected, it replicates a lot slower.

And so your B cells can actually be activated and help a lot faster than, for example, with COVID or flu.

So yeah, pay attention to that.

My newsletter coming out tomorrow.

Right.

So you can't get an MMR vaccine if you're actively pregnant.

But there is a loose recommendation that if you're looking to get pregnant to get your titers tested, because this is when antibodies really matter, is when you transfer them to the fetus.
