School Entry Requirement for Junior High School Students—Tdap Booster

A new school immunization law requires all students entering 7^th grades be immunized with a pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine booster called Tdap. Children should visit their regular doctor or healthcare provider to get their Tdap booster and other immunizations as soon as possible to avoid the back-to-school rush. Medi-Cal and most private insurances cover the cost of immunizations. View for more information on the Shots for School website.

Adult Immunizations

Limited Adult immunizations are available at both sites (Hepatitis B, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis AB combination, and Tdap).
