Mechanism of action

The vaccine contains weakened (attenuated) strains of measles, mumps, and rubella viruses that replicate in vaccinated individuals without causing disease, thereby triggering both humoral (antibody) and cellular immune responses. This immunological priming provides long-term protection against infection with wild-type measles, mumps, and rubella viruses.
