Adolescent Vaccines

The Nevada State Board of Health recently revised state regulations relating to communicable diseases.

The regulations mandate the following:

  • A child enrolling in grade 7 after June 30, 2008 must be immunized against Bordetella pertussis.
  • College freshmen under the age of 24 who plan to live on campus after September 1, 2008 must be immunized against Neisseria meningitidis before they can attend a university.

Visit the Nevada Administrative Codes 392.105, 394.190, 432A, 441A.755 webpages to read the exact language on the regulations.

The health district charges a $16 administrative fee per person for one vaccine and $25 administrative fee per person for two or more vaccines. Some vaccines require an additional charge. For more information, please contact the Immunization Clinic at (702) 759-0850.
