Clark County Vaccination Rates in Focus | Vancouver News

Clark County’s K-12 vaccination rate hit 85.5% last year, a small uptick but still below the state average and the county’s lowest in five years. New record-keeping systems are causing delays, especially for families with Oregon-based care, while schools like Battle Ground Public Schools saw improvements despite starting from the lowest baseline. Rising exemption rates are straining public health resources, as Clark County now leads Washington in confirmed measles cases. Yet, with over 85% of students still vaccinated, the trend remains firmly in favor of immunization — a crucial win to protect kids and communities.
