| Measles titers and vaccines available at UTA Health Services
|
While the threat of measles is low due to most school-aged children and adults being vaccinated, it is important to know your vaccination status. If you were born in 1957 or later and don’t have access to your vaccination records, you can schedule an appointment with UTA Health Services to perform a simple blood test (called a titer) that determines whether or not you are protected against the disease. Call UTA Health Services at 817-272-2771 to set up an appointment for testing or to get vaccinated. Click here for more information.
