Immunization Status Report - Wyoming Department of Health
Home » Public Health Division » Immunization Unit » School & Child Care Administrators » Immunization Status Report
Wyo. Stat. Ann. §§ 21-4-309 and 14-4-116 make school and child caring facility administrators responsible for completing an audit of the immunization status of any enrolled child in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the Department of Health. The Immunization Unit makes the Immunization Status Report available to schools and child care facilities annually.
Questions about the Immunization Status Report can be directed to the School and Child Care Coordinator at (307) 777-7481.
Why collect immunization data?
With over 94,000 students enrolled in Wyoming public and private schools and another 30,000 children in child caring facilities and preschools, these setting are the perfect opportunity to protect children’s health and limit the spread of disease. This can be accomplished by maintaining high vaccination coverage rates and evaluating immunization status.
Data from the Immunization Status Report is used to evaluate compliance with Wyoming statutes and rules, for state reporting, and federal reporting to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). School data is also published in the CDC’s Mortality and Morbidity Weekly Report (MMWR).
The Wyoming Department of Health Immunization Rules require all public and private schools and child care facilities to report on the immunization status of enrolled children.
