A member asked:

Are children required to get vaccinated in the u.s.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

State issue: Vaccination requirements are set by the states and vary in timing and content.Some states require them for entry into any state licensed day care setting. Private and public universities and other institutions also set their own requirements.I will not allow un- vaccinated children into my practice or into my waiting rooms.
