The Josephine County Public Health Department is alerting parents and guardians that immunization exclusion letters are being sent out indicating the child’s vaccine record needs to be updated or the child needs to be vaccinated. Children will not be able to attend school or child care starting February 20th if their records or file shows missing immunizations.

Parents or guardians seeking immunizations for their children should contact their health care provider or the Public Health Department. No one can be turned away from a local health department because of inability to pay for required vaccines.
