What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
My parents are both over 65 years old and according to the vaccination requirements guidelines for US immigrants their age excludes them from most of the vaccinations (They only need 3 ) One or two of the vaccinations needs to be given in 3 month increments or more than one is required to complete the course and they have no record of ever having received the varicella or the zoster which they will need. If they wait and receive the vaccinations at their immigration medical which might be wise because they are old enough for a Doctor to have to consider the safety of these vaccinations, will that delay their entry to the US because they need a course of vaccinations ? Do they have to wait until they are totally current before they are allowed to leave for the US or can they have their second stage of the vaccination in the US?
