Current Health Updates for Utah Families
Measles Awareness
Utah is experiencing the largest and most active measles outbreak in the US. While measles is highly contagious and can stay in the air for two hours, the MMR vaccine is 97 percent effective.
Vaccinations
In Utah, kindergarteners and 7th graders require immunizations before they can start school. If your child is not up to date, schedule an appointment now to beat the rush in August.
