Back-to-School Immunizations 2020
The Jefferson County Health Department will be providing back-to-school required and recommended immunizations on Monday, August 3, 2020 through Friday, August 7, 2020 by appointment only. The State of West Virginia requires all students entering Kindergarten, 7th and 12th grades be up to date on required vaccinations for entry into public schools.
If you wish to have your child vaccinated, please call us for an appointment as soon as possible. You will then need to complete the appropriate form located below and return it along with a copy of your child’s most recent and complete immunization records by Tuesday, July 21, 2020. Your paperwork can be submitted via mail, email or fax. Jefferson County Health Department Nursing staff will review the immunization records to determine what the child needs, and may contact the parent/guardian prior to the appointment if needed. If the forms are not received by the due date, the Health Department will not be able to vaccinate your child.
