FOREWORDThe publication presents state and project immunization policies that were validated in August 2006. It reflects state laws, regulations, or rules that impose vaccination requirements for enrollment and attendance in childcare, kindergarten, and middle school. Also included are the reported allowable immunization exemptions for each project area. The policies are vaccine specific, cataloged by grade, and are presented in table format. Because there are variances in requirements, narrative descriptions referencing age or grade and dose requirements are included. Some maps have been inserted for comparison purposes. This information represents the collaborative efforts of immunization program managers and staff in the 50 states,
the District of Columbia, the Commonwwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin islands, some of the U.S. affiliated jurisdictions in the
Pacific, and various staff from the CDC's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases. Chief, Assessment Branch Immunization Services Division National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases |
