Depending on what specialty you're going into (Peds, NICU, OB especially) they may also ask for varicella.

I can tell what I have been asked for: Measles, mumps, rubella and varicella.

Hi,

I am also trying to get into the world of traveling. I recieved titers back in 2003. Is this okay, or do they need to be more recent?

Thanks!
