Submitted by Mary Beth Martin SHELBY, NC – August 13, 2019 – As teach- ers, parents and students are preparing for the start of the 2019–2020 school year, pub- lic health offi cials with the Cleveland County Public Health Center are reminding residents to ensure their children, especially teens and preteens, are current on their vaccinations. "Vaccines are key to keeping everyone healthy, from infants to older adults, and help- ing prevent the spread of diseases in our com- munities" said Dorothea Wyant, Health Direc- tor, Cleveland County Public Health Center. To be fully immunized, children need all doses of all age-appropriate vaccines in the recommended schedule. If your child does not receive the recommended doses, your child and individuals in the community are vulner- able to serious diseases. Check with your child's doctor to fi nd out if he or she is due for any vaccinations. In North Carolina, vaccination records are checked when a child enters a child care fa- cility or a school. Children who have not ob- tained the required immunizations on the fi rst day of attendance may be excluded from any school — public, private or religious — unless they have received immunizations appropriate for their age or have a valid, documented ex- emption or proof of immunity. As children move into their preteen and teen years, they become more susceptible to cer- tain diseases, making it especially important to stay current with immunizations. Preteens, ages 11–12, should get the following four vac- cines: •Meningitis Vaccine (MCV4): Protects against some bacteria that cause meningitis and other diseases •Tetanus Shot (Tdap): Helps prevent teta- nus, diphtheria and whooping cough •HPV Vaccine: Protects against human pap- illomavirus infection and cancers •Flu Shot (Infl uenza): Recommended sea- sonally during fall and winter for everyone 6 months of age and older MCV4 and Tdap vaccines are required for all children by 12 years of age. A parent or guardian must present a certifi cate of immuni- zation to the principal or operator of school on the fi rst day of school attendance. These im- munizations continue through adolescence to protect against bacteria that cause meningitis and other diseases. An important change will be implemented for the 2020–21 school year. Effective Aug. 1, 2020 a booster dose of MCV4 is required at age 16 and before entering the 12th grade. Depending on risk factors, some teens may also need serogroup B vaccine. Parents with teenagers should talk to their pediatrician or family physician about which vaccines are ap- propriate. The Immunization Branch of the Division of Public Health is partnering with the North Car- olina Pediatric Society and the North Carolina Academy of Family Physicians for a month- long awareness campaign to help ensure that school-age children are protected from vaccine-preventable diseases. Governor Roy Cooper has proclaimed August as Immuni- zation Awareness Month in North Carolina to highlight the importance of vaccines and im- munizations. "You can use any health care visit, including for sports or camp physicals, school health as- sessments, checkups and sick visits to have your preteen or teen vaccinated," said Susan Mims, M.D., MPH, FAAP, president of the N.C. Pediatric Society. "Talk with your pediatrician or health care professional to know what vac- cinations are due and make sure your kids are protected." More information, including a list of all required North Carolina school immuniza- tions, from kindergarten through 12th grade is available at www.immunize.nc.gov/family. Additional information on vaccines and vac- cine-preventable diseases is available on the CDC's website. Immunizations are available at the Cleve- land County Public Health Center Monday – Friday from 8:00 am – 5:00 pm. For questions or additional information on immunizations, you may contact the Cleveland County Public Health Center at 980-484-5100.
