A previously unimmunized 9‑month‑old boy is brought to a community clinic for a routine visit. He was born at term at home and has received no vaccines. He is healthy, with normal development and no chronic conditions or allergies. Physical examination is normal. There is an ongoing measles outbreak in the region, and public health has recommended measles‑containing vaccine for infants 6–11 months of age. His parents now agree to begin immunizations and would like to limit injections if possible. What is the most appropriate next step in management?
