Wonder if these things wear off over time and you have to get them again?
Some of the vaccines do need to be repeated, some of them don't.

As to measles, you probably want to talk to your doctor, but a second measles shot is now recommended (wasn't when we were kids).

If you haven't kept up your tetanus boosters as an adult (every 10 years), you definitely want to get that updated.
