Measles Vaccination Law

Connecticut law requires students born after December 31, 1956, to provide proof of two doses of measles vaccine administered at least one month apart.

The first dose of vaccine must have been given after the student’s first birthday and after January 1, 1969; the second dose must have been given after January 1, 1980. The student is also required to provide proof of one dose of rubella vaccine administered after the student’s first birthday. Laboratory evidence (blood test) is acceptable in lieu of administration of vaccine. All students must be in compliance with this state law before registering.
