Full text of Arkansas Arkansas Code of 1987 Annotated § 6-60-501 — Purpose., with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 6-60-501. Purpose.
Immunizations against measles, rubella, and other communicable diseases have resulted in a dramatic decrease in the incidence of these diseases in this country. However, these diseases continue to occur on campuses of American colleges and universities, and a more intensified effort is needed to prevent and control these diseases. A requirement that certain college and university enrollees furnish proof that they have immunity against certain communicable diseases will alleviate the potential for an outbreak of those diseases. The purpose of this legislation is to assure that certain enrollees of public and private colleges and universities in Arkansas, prior to attendance, furnish proof of immunity against measles, rubella, and other diseases designated by the State Board of Health.
