Massachusetts S3070 aims to promote community immunity by enhancing immunization requirements and outreach in covered programs.

Massachusetts S3070 seeks to bolster community immunity by mandating immunizations for participants in covered programs, including child care centers, early education programs, and schools. The bill requires participants to provide documentation of immunizations or a vaccination exemption to enroll. The Department of Public Health must conduct outreach to under-vaccinated communities and offer presentations on immunization safety and efficacy. The department can designate programs as elevated risk if they fail to achieve herd immunity or report immunization rates.
