Episode Details

Delaware schools still require the same core vaccines for entry—DTaP, polio, MMR, Hep B, varicella, and meningococcal—with specific dosing schedules. While federal guidelines updated this year, state rules remain unchanged, meaning flu shots and COVID boosters aren’t mandatory but are strongly recommended. Parents can only seek medical or religious exemptions, both requiring official documentation; during outbreaks, exempted kids may be temporarily excluded. New federal recommendations now tailor some vaccines to specific children or doctor consultations, prompting more personalized conversations with pediatricians. Back-to-school? Double-check your child’s immunization status against Delaware’s current mandates to keep them—and everyone—safe.
