A new online tool is making it easier for Ohio families to access important health information.
The Ohio Department of Health has launched a public dashboard that tracks kindergarten immunization rates across the state.
Users can sort the data by school, county, year, and specific vaccines, offering a clearer look at vaccination coverage and exemption rates in their community.
Health officials say the goal is to help families, schools, and policymakers better understand risks tied to vaccine-preventable diseases.
The dashboard includes data dating back to the 2017–2018 school year and will be updated annually.
You can explore the tool on data.ohio.gov or by clicking HERE.
