Get your titers checked by your doctor, that’s about the only other thing you can do. Especially if you were born before 1989, since you may have only had 1 measles vaccine instead of 2, which raises the effectiveness.
If your titers are good and you’re masking then I don’t know of anything else to be done about it, since measles is airborne (even more so than COVID). Unless you’re immunocompromised those two things should protect you.
Can you clarify what you’re saying? Do you mean that your immune levels are low as an adult despite getting the MMR vaccine three times instead of two as a child?
It can happen! When a vaccine is 97% effective, that means for 3% of people who get it as directed, they still won’t have full immunity. A lot of the time it can be fixed with extra shots, since for some people (or even just with some vaccines) their bodies need a little extra ‘training’ before it works.

Thanks, I got blood tested a couple of months ago and found I still have immunity. Which is a nice thing to find out going into this.

Measles is something like 4 to 5 times more infectious than covid. So yeah, there really isn’t much more to do
Whoa, I didn’t know the stat was that much higher. Dang…
Haha titers
86'baby, can confirm.⚠️Except double-checking my childhood record’s, I did have my full 2-shot-series. 😱
I got my third booster The First Go-Round.
Upon getting my titer results, I asked what the deal was. Seems my timeframe didn’t get "The good stuff"?

Fixed.
Borderline, despite two as a child.
