An unvaccinated Jessamine County resident who tested positive for measles after attending last month’s revival at Asbury University has some wondering which vaccinations are required for Kentucky public school students. Debbie Boian is the health services coordinator for Fayette County Public Schools. She said that over a student’s K-12 years, more than a dozen different shots are required – but there are exceptions.
“Number one, first and foremost is medical exceptions. So there are students who, whose health conditions are so fragile, that getting a vaccine would be dangerous to their health.”
