CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Mecklenburg County Public Health will be offering several Saturday back-to-school immunization clinics starting July 30.
Children heading back to school will need to provide proof of the minimum required vaccinations within 30 days after the first day of school or they will not be permitted to attend. MCPH says all immunizations required by the state to attend school can be obtained at one of the upcoming clinics.
