School Immunization Audits Data

While the data in this report demonstrate trends, school audit data do not provide a full picture of all children’s immunization history. Vaccination and exemption status reflects the student’s status at the time of assessment. Some students may be in the process of receiving required vaccines and final vaccination or exemption status may change after completion of the audit (Provisional Certificates, Medical Exemptions and invalid records). In addition, some students with exemptions may have received some of the required vaccines.
