- MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella)
- For Healthcare Personnel
If a healthcare worker develops a rash and low-grade fever after MMR vaccine, is the person infectious?
Approximately 5 to 15% of susceptible people who receive MMR vaccine will develop a low-grade fever and/or mild rash 7 to 12 days after vaccination. However, the person is not infectious, and no special precautions ( such as exclusion from work) need to be taken.
