Bingham, a medical officer of health in Ontario, who says that low immunization rate for students can cause a major problem.
If you’re not sure what shots your child has had or needs, contact your primary healthcare provider and find out. You will need to send a copy of each child’s immunization record to the health unit as well. Failure to do so could result in a suspension from school.
