Dear Parent: Thank you for enrolling your student in an EF Language Travel course to New York Residence. New York State Public Health Law requires overnight children’s camps to distribute information about meningococcal disease and vaccination to all campers who attend camp for 7 or more nights. We are required to maintain a record of the following for each student: A response to receipt of meningococcal disease and vaccine information A record of meningococcal meningitis immunization; OR An acknowledgement of meningococcal disease risks and refusal of meningococcal meningitis immunization In order for us to comply, please complete the following acknowledgments: 1. Sign below acknowledging that you have received and read this information. 2. Attach a record of meningococcal meningitis immunization OR sign the portion of the form refusing meningococcal meningitis immunization. We encourage you to carefully review the Meningococcal Disease Fact Sheet, which can be found on the New York State Department of Health website at http://www.health.ny.gov/publications/2168.pdf. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Yours sincerely,
Lars Ahlqvist Vice President, EF Language Travel
