Over the last couple of years, many of us have fallen out of our routines. Priorities shifted and schedules were interrupted as everyone tried to make the best of an unprecedented situation. One particularly important routine that may have been disrupted is your child’s immunization schedule.
Mecklenburg County Public Health (MCPH) provides required immunizations to school-aged children as required by the State so that they can attend school. Children who do not provide proof of the minimum required immunizations within 30 days after the first day of school may be excluded.
MCPH is offering several Saturday immunization clinics in additional to regular weekday appointments to better meet the needs of busy families. All Saturday clinics list below offer all State required vaccines as well as flu and COVID-19.
