MMR protection and pop-up clinics

London has much lower rates of routine childhood vaccinations than other parts of England regions. Just 74.1% of children have had their full schedule of MMR by the age of five. This is well below the 95% target set by the World Health Organisation (WHO), needed to eliminate these diseases.

MMR is part of the NHS Routine Childhood Immunisation Programme. Parents whose infants are unvaccinated or have missed out their second dose are urged to come forward.
