Experts urge MMR vaccination as measles outbreak spreads
Original: Experts recommend MMR vaccine as measles outbreak expands

The MMR shot, which protects against measles, mumps and rubella, is described as the key defence against the highly contagious disease. Officials are urging families to check their vaccination status as the outbreak grows.
