  • Exempt Students, Connecticut Immunization Survey Results 2017
    Exempt Students, Connecticut Immunization Survey Results 2017–2018 The Connecticut Department of Public Health Immunization Program is pleased to make available the 2017-2018 Connecticut immunization survey exemption results by school. Please be aware that the data are limited in a number of ways, including those listed below. • All data are self-reported by schools and discrepancies may exist. The Immunization Program works with schools to resolve discrepancies and update immunization data, when possible. • Data release standards do not allow for data to be shared for schools with fewer than 30 students represented in the denominator. • Data are collected in the fall. Immunization rates may be higher than reported due to additional children receiving immunizations during the school year after data is reported. Also, the student body is dynamic and as students arrive and leave school, the immunization rates are impacted. • Children are allowed a medical or religious exemption to one or more vaccines. Vaccine exemption data is collected on the child and not on each vaccine. Therefore, children with exemptions are counted as exempt although they may have received some vaccines not counted in the survey. • Children without the required number of doses of vaccine do not necessarily have an exemption on file. • Children without a record of vaccination, but with serologic proof of immunity to certain diseases (measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis b, hepatitis a, and varicella), meet school entry requirements, and may be counted as vaccinated. Data definitions: * School returned survey and reported fewer than 30 total students, so data cannot be released Type: Public or nonpublic (private) school Ex_Med: Percentage of all students attending school with a medical exemption.
