We are waiting for DOH to share the slideshow and webinar recording from March 28, which was full of reminders and clarifications about the immunization schedule and school requirements to track student records.
One key highlight from the webinar was the reminder from DOH that all early learning programs must have measles-immunized staff/volunteers (all adults interacting with children 4 and under). WAC 110-310-0120
The online registry, Washington State Immunization Information System (WAIIS), holds the immunization records for people of all ages in Washington State. The School and Child Care Immunization Module, a component of WAIIS, is a free and user-friendly web-based tool. It lets users easily track and manage student, child, and school-level immunization information.
Schools and childcare without a nurse on staff can gain access to review the WA Immunization Information System by completing this Digital Information Sharing Agreement.
Two changes for the 2024-25 school year immunization schedule:
- Students age 10+ may need another TDap
- Students age 4 as of 9/1 were added to the K12 schedule
See the DOH’s Individual Vaccine Requirement Summary for details.
