Vaccination
For the 2017-18 school year, 94.3% of kindergarten students in the United States were immunized for measles, mumps and rubella, 95.1% for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis and 93.8% for varicella.

Vaccine hesitancy, especially about the influenza vaccine, is prevalent in the United States. A 2019 survey found that 1 in 15 U.S. parents were hesitant about routine childhood vaccinations, and more than 1 in 4 were hesitant about the influenza vaccine. In 2019, the World Health Organization listed vaccine hesitancy as among the top ten threats to global health. The frequency of vaccination exemptions in some religious communities in the United States poses a threat to herd immunity. The recent resurgence of measles and pertussis in the United States has been attributed to vaccine hesitancy.
