Here is the latest information on immunizations for parents:

New Requirement:

Varicella - The varicella (chickenpox) vaccine is now required for all children in child care, preschool or kindergarten (effective July 1, 2001). It is important to know that if a child has had chickenpox disease, a doctor will need to note that on the child's official immunization record. A letter on the doctor's letterhead stating that the child had the disease is also acceptable. A verbal or written statement from the parent is not acceptable.

Parent Concerns About Vaccine Safety:

With the availability of so much non-scientific information available over the web, parents have become increasingly concerned about the safety of vaccine. There are various internet resources where one can get science-based information:
