Go get that MMR vaccine update if you can - I paid $150 or so for mine out of pocket.

Texas sees worst measles outbreak in 30+ years.
90 cases, 16 hospitalizations—85 unvaccinated. Gaines County, the epicenter, saw vaccine exemptions jump from 7.5% (2013) to 17.5% (2023). Health officials urge vaccinations as measles spreads fast, with a 90% infection rate among the unvaccinated.

I managed to catch pertussis at the tender age of 36 bc I never realized I needed a booster till I'd been in my grad program for a year (got notified 2 mos after I caught it -- also about 10 days after I recovered fully)
I was able to get it monday at cvs along w first shingles shot. Guy sort of said something. I just said I work around high risk people. He didn't ask anything more.
Been thinking about getting a booster myself given everything even though it's theoretically unnecessary...
