     Immunization
 

 

The Minnesota College Immunization Law (MN Statutes Section 135A.014) was amended during the 1999 Legislative Session to require that information on transmission, treatment and prevention of hepatitis A, B and C be given to students. Please read carefully the pamphlets from the CDC on Hepatitis A, B and C that you will find linked to our web page. We want to reduce the risk of viral hepatitis and develop an adult population with more knowledge of disease prevention and transmission issues.

The state of Minnesota requires that all students, born after 01/01/1957, be immunized against diphtheria, tetanus, measles, mumps and rubella.
