Maryland Updates Immunization Requirements for 2006-2007 School Year
The State of Maryland recently updated its immunization requirements for school age children and college students. The new requirements can be found at the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene website. Vaccine requirement charts are also available on the site. In addition, a new exclusion date table was issued by the Department on July 14, 2006, extending the exclusion deadline for compliance from September 1, 2006, to January 1, 2007, in an attempt to allow extra time to review student records and education parents on the new school immunization requirements.
Other requirements and details about immunization are available at the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's Center for Immunization.
