Immunizations for School Attendance in Your Community and Vaccine Preventable Disease Investigation (8 Hours)Background: ○In this 2-part activity, students will be investigating the immunization requirements for public school attendance in their state, crafting a formal communication to parents of students who are out of compliance with vaccine requirements. Then you will research a vaccine preventable disease.First Activity:●Instructions:○Students should create a table that indicates the immunization requirements for public school attendance (at kindergarten age) in their state. ■Standard vaccine abbreviations can be used if they refer to the disease and not the product. For example, students should avoid terms like Pediarix and instead indicate DTaP, HepB, and IPV, which are the vaccine components in Pediarix. ■At the bottom of the table, students should indicate the policy to object/opt out of vaccine requirements for public school attendance in their state. ○Once the table is completed, students should then assume the role of school nurse and consider a scenario in which, when reviewing immunization records at the beginning of the school year, the student identifies several children with missing immunization records. Students should develop a formal letter/email communication that could be used to communicate the legal requirements to parents/guardians and what their options and deadlines are for compliance. Students should include free/low-cost immunization clinics/resources with contact information available in the community. Students should also include their own professional contact information in the assumed role of school nurse. Second Activity: ●Instructions:○Students should select a pediatric vaccine-preventable disease and, in a 2-3-page paper (approximately 500-750 words), address the following topics:■Define and describe the selected pediatric vaccine-preventable disease. In addition, describe the disease from an epidemiologic perspective; apply the epidemiologic triangle (host, agent, environment). What is the incubation period for this disease? ■Why is there a vaccine for this disease? How long has it been readily available? ■What is the historical (i.e. pre-vaccine era) and current prevalence and incidence of this disease?■Compare the evidence regarding the outcomes of experiencing this disease with the side effects of vaccination against this disease. ■Use citations as appropriate.
