Yes, you can.
But the MMR protects you from the complications of measles such as Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis.
Measles had one of the greatest infant morbidity and mortality ratios before the development of the MMR.
Children used to go blind,deaf and mute from it.
But not any more.Thanks to MMR,measles is just a mild fever and rash.

it is possible to get any infection after having the vaccination
the mmr wasnt around when i was little but i had the measles vaccination and still developed measels
however if you get a disease after being vaccinated it should not be as bad

Yes. Measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) is just a vaccine to help you not get it. But sometimes your body can still get it, the vaccine is not 100%.

Yes. No vaccine is 100% effective so you could be one of the "lucky" ones. Sorry.
