What are the required vaccinations?

What is the full list of vaccinations required for someone (female) to pass their medical? I was listening to something on the radio that said the HPV vaccine was required, is it?

What vaccines/boosters are required for immigrants and those applying for adjustment of status in the United States?

As part of the medical examination for immigration, all immigrants are required to have an assessment for the following vaccine-preventable diseases: mumps, measles, rubella, polio, tetanus and diphtheria toxoids, pertussis, Haemophilus influenzae type B, meningitis and invasive disease, hepatitis B, varicella, and pneumococcal pneumonia. Persons already in the United States applying for adjustment of status for permanent residency, including refugees, are also required to be assessed for these vaccine-preventable diseases.

Each set of Technical Instructions for medical examination of aliens has an addendum regarding the vaccination requirements for immigrants.

HPV is required for women between 11 to 26 I believe.

My wife is 27; does that means she does not need to get it now? I was unsure reading the CDC stuff if the age brackets were "Should have got it here, outside this age does not need it", or "Should have got it here, but if you don't have it, get it now".

Here is the site for Canadians and what vaccines they are required to have. Since she is 27 the Gardasil vaccine for HPV and cervical cancer is not medically appropriate for her.

Good luck

How would someone be able to get their shot records when they haven't been to a doctor in well over 10 years and doesn't currently have a family doctor? Or would he be better off finding a doctor (which I have been bugging him to do for 2 years now) and get the Antibody Titer tests?

My wife just did this... She live in London Ontario and contacted the London Middlesex health unit and they were able to provide my wife with upto date immunization records for herself and our 3 kids

I went and got a blood test today to find out my history

I asked at the blood place for them to mail my results and I'll get needles at my local doctor for all the ones I'm missing off the list...

Happy jabbing!!!

2007 Technical Instructions for Vaccination for Panel Physicians

This publication is much more detailed and applies specifically to Panel Physicians conducting Overseas Exams. I do not see any addendums to this publication.

My wife is going to hate getting all these shots!

[mrsemcee 1]

HELP!!!

i have been going to my local doctor every 2 weeks to get the required shots on the list from the state.gov website and now i am told that i didnt need to do this? is that correct? do i just not get any extras, take my current records along, and then the panel physician does the boosters if needed?

geez.. i dont know how i didnt know this earlier.

is there any benefit at all to me doing all these shots now?!

[mrsemcee 1]

i just found out the answer myself!!

a lot of the vaccines on this list are not age appropriate!

this is a very handy piece of writing showing the technical stuff for the doctor... but it shows each vaccine and what is and isnt appropriate.
