College Immunization Survey Results 2016-2017

The Massachusetts Department of Public Health Immunization Program is pleased to make available the 2016-2017 Massachusetts college immunization survey results by college. Please be aware that the data are limited in a number of ways, including those listed below.

• All data are self-reported by colleges and discrepancies may exist. The Immunization Program continues to work with colleges to resolve discrepancies and update immunization data, when possible. • Not all colleges return their survey. Colleges without data due to non-response are indicated (*). • Some colleges returned surveys, however those surveys contained discrepancies leading to mathematically impossible rates. When possible, we work with colleges to resolve data discrepancies. Colleges where rates were withheld due to unresolved discrepancies are indicated (¶). • Data are primarily collected in the fall, but immunization data are often updated throughout the year and rates (during the same school year) may be higher than reported due to additional students receiving immunizations or bringing records to college. Also, the student body is dynamic and as students arrive and leave college, the immunization rates are impacted. • Students are allowed a medical or religious exemption to one or more vaccines. • Students without the required number of doses of vaccine do not necessarily have an exemption on file. • Students without a record of vaccination, but with serologic proof of immunity to certain diseases (measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis b and varicella), meet school entry requirements, and may be counted as vaccinated. College immunization data are presented here in three worksheets. The first worksheet shows immunization rates for all students, the second worksheet shows immunization rates for health science students, and the third worksheet shows meningococcal immunization rates for residential students.

Health science students are identified by each individual college, and usually are students enrolled in a clinical program that involves patient contact.

Data definitions:

* School did not respond to survey

School returned survey however, due to data discrepancies, rates are not available at ¶ this time

School returned survey and reported fewer than 30 total health science or residential † students, so data for these students cannot be released

§ School reported no health science students or residential students 2 doses of MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine. Students with laboratory 2 MMR evidence of immunity to all three diseases, or non-health science students born in the US before 1957 are also included in this category.

3 doses of hepatitis B vaccine. Students with laboratory evidence of immunity are 3 Hep B also included in this category.

1 Tdap 1 dose of Tdap (Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) vaccine.

2 doses of varicella vaccine. Students with a reliable history of chickenpox disease, 2 Varicella laboratory evidence of immunity, or non-health science students born in the US before 1980 are also included in this category.

Exemption Medical and religious exemptions combined

Unimmunized Students with an exemption that have no documented vaccines

No Record Students reported as not having an immunization record on file

1 dose of quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenACWY) or a dose of Received quadrivalent meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine within the last five years (does Vaccine not include MenB vaccine).

Notes • All data are self-reported by college and discrepancies may exist. The Immunization Program continues to work with colleges to resolve discrepancies and update immunization data, when possible. • Not all colleges return their survey. Colleges without data due to non-response are indicated (*).

• Not all colleges report enrolling health science students. Colleges that do not have health science student data to report are indicated (§).

• Some colleges returned surveys that contained discrepancies leading to mathematically impossible immunization rates. When possible, we work with colleges to resolve data discrepancies. Colleges where rates were withheld due to unresolved discrepancies are indicated (¶).

• Data are primarily collected in the fall, but immunization data are often updated throughout the year and rates (during the same school year) may be higher than reported due to additional students receiving immunizations or bringing records to school. Also, the student body is dynamic and as students arrive and leave school, the immunization rates are impacted. • Students are allowed a medical or religious exemption to one or more vaccines. • Students without the required number of doses of vaccine do not necessarily have an exemption on file. • Students without a record of vaccination, but with serologic proof of immunity to certain diseases (measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis b and varicella), meet school entry requirements, and may be counted as vaccinated.

• Rates for vaccines are rounded to the nearest percentage point and may slightly under- or overestimate true immunization rates.
