I've seen countless SEO companies brag about such things on the home pages of their websites. But here's what the shady seo company with the bold promises would do. A business may do this on their own but many will want to consult with a professional SEO company to handle the management of web traffic and the visibility of your business. © Copyright 2005-2010 Department of Pediatric.

What is the MMR vaccine?

The MMR vaccine protects against the measles, mumps and rubella. It's given as 2 shots.

Measles causes fever, rash, cough, runny nose and watery eyes. It can also cause ear infections and pneumonia. Measles can also lead to more serious problems, such as brain swelling and even death.

Mumps causes fever, headache and painful swelling of one or both of the major saliva glands. Mumps can lead to meningitis (infection of the coverings of the brain and spinal cord) and, very rarely, to brain swelling. Rarely, it can cause the testicles of boys or men to swell, which can make them unable to have children.

Rubella is also called the German measles. It causes slight fever, a rash and swelling of the glands in the neck. Rubella can also cause brain swelling or a problem with bleeding.

If a pregnant woman catches rubella, it can cause her to lose her baby or have a baby who is blind or deaf, or has trouble learning.

Some people have suggested that the MMR vaccine causes autism. However, good research has shown that there is no link between autism and childhood vaccinations.
