title: Immunization: public health programming through law enforcement.
abstract: The pre-inoculation program review of the school immunization records in fall, 1974 found that only 60 per cent of the 63,000 children in the Cincinnati primary school system were adequately immunized. Following a program based upon their legal authority to require immunizations, the Board of Health in collaboration with the Board of Education was able to obtain in a two-year effort a 91 per cent immunization level.
