The Chatham County Health Department is hosting two after-school meningitis vaccine clinics for rising high school juniors in April and May. All students in Georgia who are at least 16 years of age are required to have a meningococcal booster shot when entering 11th grade. Students can be denied school entry in the fall if vaccinations aren’t up to date.
Appointments can be scheduled online at coastalhealthdistrict.as.me/chatham-teenclinic or by calling the Chatham County Health Department at 912-356-2441. A parent or guardian must accompany the child to the appointment. Most insurance will be accepted, and a nominal administration fee will be charged for those without insurance. These online appointments are ONLY for meningococcal booster shots for teens. Please call the clinic directly for all other vaccine appointments.
