Measles can cause immune amnesia so catching measles might mean that you would have to get every vaccine you've ever gotten over again and every cold, flu and infection your body has already learned to fight off it would forget. Except for measles itself.

Because I will always repeat this when we see measles circulating again: if you were born 1957-1972 and did attend college or 1957-1987 and didn't attend college, you should get your MMR immunity tested with a simple lab test or one adult dose of MMR booster if your insurance won't cover labwork.
