TALKING POINTS

There are numerous occasions when a young adult needs access to their childhood immunization records as they transition to independence – enrolling in college, joining the military, and beginning to manage their own health care.

Keeping immunization records available into their early adult years will be useful, while still providing confidentiality and the ability to opt-out.
