ImmunizationsNew York State requires the following immunizations for school entry or attendance. (See the NYS website for complete details)
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations for some immunizations are higher than New York State's recommendations. To see their recommendations visit their site. You can discuss the differences with your healthcare provider. The CDC also offers a good reference for updated Child & Adolescent Immunization Schedules. For your convenience we have placed pdf versions of the Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) on this website for you to read. Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) are information sheets produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that explain to vaccine recipients, their parents, or their legal representatives both the benefits and risks of a vaccine. Federal law requires that VISs be handed out whenever certain vaccinations are given. A VIS with a date several years old is not necessarily out of date. VISs are not updated annually or on any other routine schedule. An updated VIS with a new date is posted when there is a change in recommendations. All VISs are Portable Document File (PDF) format. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view them. The PDF version of these documents is the same as the version you would receive in our office. To get the latest version of AdobePDF Reader please check their website at: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html
The Canandaigua Medical Group thanks the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for the these statements. They are the same files that can be downloaded from the CDC website.
