Free Immunizations
Published August 4, 2010
The Williamson County Health Department will offer free immunizations to seventh graders during the month of August. According to the state's new immunization requirements, all children entering the seventh grade must submit proof of a booster dose of the tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (Tdap) vaccine; and confirm either chickenpox immunity through the disease or receipt of two doses of the varicella vaccine.
If a child has already received the required vaccines for seventh grade, a new Immunization Certificate must be provided to the child’s school. The special clinics for seventh graders will be offered on the following days, and parents will need to make an appointment by calling the numbers below:
