WHEN VACCINATION FAILS TO TAKE Health Commissioner Dixon Ex plains Provision That Is Made In Such Cases So That Children May Not Be Debarred From School. WHEN CLAIM IS MADE THAT "CHILD IS UNFIT" In Exceptional Cases, Where Careful Investigation By Local or State He.;!th Authorities Justifies Admis sion to School, It Is Authorized. "After three carefully performed but uni itccessful attempts to vaccinate a child have failed, that child should not be debarred from school privileges, but should be admitted, and the Depart ment of Health has provided for this," said State Health Commissioner Sam uel G. Dixon in an interview. "The Supreme Court of Pennsylva nia," continued Dr. Dixon, "called at tention in the recent opinion it handed tl v'u reaffirming the validity ot the so called vaccination law of June 18. 189!i, to thi hardship involved in the twelfth svetion of that act when it is beyond the power of children of school age to V.- vaccinated, although they may not previously have had smallpox nor pre t iously been vaccinated, and even re peated attempts to perform the oper ation upon such children are without effect and vaccination will not take. ; j such cases, as the court pointed out, the physician cannot certify that such child has been successfully vac cinated so as to meet the requirement ol" admission to school. The court's de rision suggested the possibility of the health authorities, state or local, mak itig a regulation setting forth the con ditions under which a child upon whom vaccination will not take, may be per mitted togo to school. The court also suggests that the health authorities would have to consider whether such a regulation would be undesirable as ! ait'ording opportunity for the evasion of the statute. "The Department ol Health," con- I tinned Health Commissioner Dixon, | "ha:- taken this tendency to evade the j law into consideration, as it was ; obliged to, and yet we have endeav- j or.alto see that, those children who \ could not he vaccinated should be ad- I mitted to school. Our method of ac- | cornplishing this from the first has j been as follows: "When the cases that we received Inquiry about were within the limits j ot a borough or city having a Board of , Health of its own, we suggested that ; after two unsuccessful attempts to vac- j filiate a child, the third attempt he j made by or in the presence of the : physician of (he Board of Health. If , this attempt failed, then the physician of the hoard, acting in his official ca- j paclty, should authorize the admission of the child. "In the rural districts, where there are no Boards of Health to pass upon t-uch cases, 1 have always asked that after three unsuccessful attempts to vaccinate a child have been made, the name of the child and the physician | ■ » '-■»■ •" «= - v/'»o made the at to; ipte b- rOt-rod im rnadift'< !y to tlie . oi Health. The cases. have then been at onco investigated by our County Medi- "" pal Inspectors or some one deputized by them, so that the child might not _ unjustly be debarred from school pvivi- gj leges. These methods of (Haling with 112 the situution have been in conformity £ with the Supreme Court's suggestion fc that the liealih authorities assume the 112 responsibility of authorizing the ad- jj mission to school of children upon i whom, after a reasonable number of | attempt- vaccination does not take, il "Taking advantage of the spirit of j I this part of the Supreme Court's op'n- , ft ion we have also endeavored to deal jS with the cases of children where there j ft was reason to believe that the child s physical condition did not make vac- ; | cination at the present time advisable. The Attorney General of the State had js given an opinion that a teacher was I g not authoi i>: d to accept a eertiflca.e ; from a physician stating that the child j | was not in a physical condition to, be jji vaccinated. It is. reasonable to b - Jjj lieve, however, that although the sim- a pie giving of such a certificate by the 8 family physic-ism would not be eufU - cient, the spirit of the Supreme Court'-; opinion would permit the recognized health authorities throughout the! state, after careful investigation, to j pass upon such cases. "Therefore when such cases are now j brought to the attention of our dc pat 1 nient, we have suggested that inside borough or city limits, the local Hoai.l j / of Health, through its physician, dc cide whether the child is well ( nowgh i to attend school and yet not in a I'l j condition to be vaccinated. In the d- | triets where there afe no Boards ' HenUh we are having such eases in- 1 vestigated and passed upon by on; regular County Medical Inspect? rs "It will tlKis b<> seen,'' concluded Dr. ! Dixon, "that the State I> .-part nit-n' ol Health is doing everything- p issible to ! prevent any cliild from b -ini; tm.t; 1 11; j deprived of its schooling li the pac t-lit or guardian, however, vein • ? t-. • permit a child to be vaccinat- d situ, y ! through prejudice, the health u h>> i ties certainly have no power to inter fere with the operation of the law. In -such cases we have dote- owr-lbi' .- we could to overcome tbi* p • j 11 ■ 1 i•' 1 by education, so that the inn,ice.it i child might not be made to . uffer ! cause the parent de.-ircd to leave i: exposed to the ravages of sciallp; \ rather than Undergo vaccination which ! the Legislature of Penn.-ylva aia. int. e j exercise oi it:; police power, has made j one of the requisites of admis. ::>n to school." Making Peter Pay For Paul.
