Immunization Updates for the 2024-25 School Year
Many children need to receive vaccines during the summer to stay up-to-date and comply with school vaccination requirements.
Current NYS School Immunization Regulations
Please review the following schedules before school starts.
- 2024-25 School Year, New York State Immunization Requirements for School Entrance/Attendance (PDF)
- يجب أن يحصل جميع الأطفال الذين يدخلون الصف 7، 8، 9، 10، و12 على لقاح المكورات السحائية. بدونه، لا يمكنهم بدء الذهاب الى المدرسة.
- يُطلب من أطفال المدارس الآن أن يتم تحصينهم بسلسلة كاملة من جميع اللقاحات المطلوبة - أو أن يكونوا في طور إكمال بذلك — من أجل حضور الفصول الدراسية. بموجب التعريف الحالي لـ "in process"، لا يمكن للأطفال الذين لم يتم تحصينهم بالكامل الاستمرار في الذهاب إلى المدرسة أو مرحلة ما قبل الروضة إلا إذا كانوا في طور إكمال التطعيم وفقًا لجدول المتابعة من ACIP. إذا كان الأطفال يتبعون جداول التحصين الأخرى التي لا تفي بالفترات الزمنية المحددة في جدول المتابعة من ACIP، فلن يعد يُنظر إليهم على أنهم "in process" ويجب استبعادهم من المدرسة، إن لم يتم إعفاؤهم بطريقة أخرى.
كن حكيمًا، حصّن نفسك
حملة تحصين جميع سكان نيويورك (The Campaign to ImmuNYze all New Yorkers) هي مبادرة من County Health Officials of New York (NYSACHO)، تجمع بين المرضى وأولياء الأمور ومقدمي الخدمات وشركاء الحملة. هدفنا: زيادة الوعي بالحاجة إلى التحصين طوال الحياة — من عمر الطفولة حتى سنين الكبر — من خلال تقديم معلومات موثوقة قائمة على العلم حول اللقاحات والأمراض التي يمكن الوقاية منها باللقاحات.

Vaccine Information Statements (VIS)
Vaccine Information Statements (VIS) are fact sheets produced by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC.) Each VIS explains to vaccine recipients, their parents, or their legal representatives both the benefits and risks of a vaccine. At any TCHD clinic, you will be provided with the specific VIS for the vaccine or vaccines you or your child are about to receive. You will also be given time to review it before the vaccine is administered.
