      If you got vaccinated from 1970 or earlier, get a booster. If later than that, get your titer level checked. The immunity is good but not everyone becomes immune.

      I think only if you have a good reason or don’t have 100% verifiable documentation. Before our first child was born the doctor recommended we get MMR again just to be sure. You don’t want to risk it around a vulnerable newborn.

      There is always a chance that your immunity has worn off. Through my doctor I got a blood test and found I was no longer immune, so I got another shot. If you’re concerned you could ask your doctor or maybe visit a walk-in clinic if you don’t have one.
