Suspension notices are arriving in mailboxes this week. Lambton Public Health has mailed out 1,100 notices to parents of secondary students, whose immunization records are not up to date. Supervisor Erin Courtney says parents still have a few weeks to get back to the health unit. "Suspension date is set for February 16th, 2016. If you've received shots at your doctors, you need to call us, or drop in, email us, fax us the record. We've also set up extra clinics at Lambton Public Health to help these students get up to date." Courtney says those dates are included in the notices sent in the mail. All children, 18 years and younger, require the vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus, polio, mumps, rubella, measels, meningitis, whooping cough and chicken pox.
