MMR Screening Bundle

The MMR Screening Bundle groups together 3 blood tests to detect immunity for Measles, Mumps and Rubella, obtained via the MMR vaccine. Many University placements require screening for infection/immunity to reduce transmission risk during placement.

Please note: If you also require testing for Hepatitis B antigen, Hepatitis B antibody, Varicella Zoster, and QuantiFERON-TB Gold, please see: Student Screening Bundle
If you require testing for HIV or Hepatitis C, please see: HIV or Hepatitis C
