Dear friends
MMR is given regularly by the Bombay municipal corporation as a part of the  
regular immunisation schedule since the last 2 yrs and is given free of cost to 
all beneficiaries attending the municipal dispensaries and health posts.

Dear Friends
It is a shame that the Govt Immunization schedule does not have MMR included in 
it. During the elections in this country no leader addresses the health aspects 
as voters do not want / vote on those grounds.
But, not withstanding data or lack of it, as pointed out by one friend, Cong 
Rubella Syn is seen with enough freqency (say as low as one case/ pediatriican/ 
year) to warrant routine MMR vaccination, much before HIB as is being touted in 
some circles.
