Publ ic Health Officials Urge Parents to Make Sure Kindergartners are Up-to-Date on Vaccinations.

In the midst of the largest measles outbreak in the U.S. in nearly three decades, public health officials representing Adams, Arapahoe, Denver, Douglas, Jefferson, Clear Creek, and Gilpin counties are calling on parents and caregivers to keep measles out of Colorado by making sure kindergartners are vaccinated before school starts.

Colorado’s 2018-2019 rate for the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine among kindergart ners was 87.4 percent, according to the Colorado Department of Public Healt h and Environment (CDPHE). In the Denver Metro region, the rate was 89.1 pe rcent. Neither is high enough to protect communities from a measles outbrea k.

“These MMR rates need to be higher to ensure measles does not spre ad across Colorado and the Denver Metro Area,” said Dr. John M. Douglas, Jr ., Executive Director at Tri-County Health Department. “Add to that having problems with pockets of children or adults with even lower vaccination rat es. That’s the recipe for an outbreak to begin and exactly what has happene d in other states during 2019.”

Kids need two doses of measles-contai ning vaccine, one at 12-15 months and a second at 4-6 years, to be protecte d. The second dose is required before kindergarten entry in Colorado.

“The measles vaccine is safe — and it works,” said Judy Shlay, MD, Associa te Director of Denver Public Health. “Measles can be a very serious illness and is a public safety issue. It’s up to all of us to create immunity in o ur communities and protect others who can’t be vaccinated.”
