Officials say migrant parents have 30 days to bring their children to the Roosevelt Hotel to get checked out by a doctor and get the required vaccinations, but there may be no consequences for not doing so.
With the new school year right around the corner, more questions are being raised about the immunization requirements for migrant children.With the new school year set to begin in New York City in just a few days, questions continue to surround the immunization requirements for migrant children who will enter the city's public school system.
New York City Public School students must have health exams and proof of vaccinations for serious diseases including Polio, Hepatitis B, Measles, and Chicken Pox before they can start school. But for migrants, there's a 30-day deadline, not to actually get vaccinated, but to begin the process. However, Dr. Vasan did acknowledge the difficulty of migrant parents having documentation that their kids have received the required shots.
If migrant parents do not have their kids vaccinated in 30 days, they won't necessarily face any consequences if they tried, said Schwartzwald.
