The County's Immunization Program makes immunizations available to all persons
in need of such service in order to prevent the occurrence and transmission of
childhood diseases; and under the terms of this Contract, the State provides
free vaccine to the County. The Program monitors the compliance of
preschools, elementary schools, and secondary schools in meeting State-mandated
immunization requirements through inservice programs and limited technical
assistance. An adverse reaction monitoring system and outbreak control team
are also included in the Program.
Four certified and sealed copies of this Board Order should be returned to the
