Attention Kindergarten, 6th grade, and college students.N. C. lawmakers have made several changes to the rules regarding vaccination of school-aged children, including college students. Effective January 1, 2008, the administrative rule, 10A NCAC 41A.0401, has been changed, adding requirements for a booster dost of Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis) vaccine and a second dose of mumps vaccine.

These rule changes will go into affect beginning with the 2008-2009 school year. The new rule states that a booster dose of Tdap vaccine is required for the following individuals:** All students attending public school who are entering the 6th grade on or after August 1, 2008, if five years or more have passed since the last dose of tetanus/diptheria toxoid.** All students not attending public schools (i.e. PRIVATE SCHOOL, home-school, non-traditional schools) who are 12 years of age on or after August 1, 2008, if five years or more have passed since the last dose of tetanus/diphtheria toxoid.**

Individuals enrolling in college or university for the first time on or after July 1, 2008, if a tetanus/diphtheria toxoid or tetanus/diphtheria/pertussis vaccine has not been administered in the past 10 years. This administrative rule change also impacts mumps vaccination. Individuals are now required to receive a second dose of mumps vaccine before enrolling in school, college or university for the first time. Since these vaccinations are required, children will be able to receive the booster dose of Tdap and second dose of mumps for free. Parents need to set up an appointment with their child's physician or local health department to receive the immunization prior to school entry.

The vaccine will be provided at no charge; however, the physician may charge a small fee to administer it. Parents must show proof of their child's vaccination in the form of a copy of the Certificate of Immunization. This certificate should be presented to the child's school to show proof of vaccination of Tdap or mumps. Parents have up to 30 calendar days from the first day of attendance to present the required up-to-date immunization record for their child.

If the child's immunizations are NOT up-to-date, the required immunizations must be obtained or the process of obtaining immunizations must have begun within the same 30 day period. At the end of the 30 calendar day period, any child, without a Certificate of Immunization showing that the child has received the required vaccines, shall be suspended from school until he/she provides a Certificate of Immunization as required by law or shows that he/she has begun the immunization process.
