Immunization Procedure

Immunizations Against Disease During an Outbreak/Epidemic ~ During an epidemic or a threatened epidemic of any disease preventable by immunization at an individual college controlled by the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) and when an emergency has been declared by appropriate health authorities of this state, the President of that Technical College is authorized, in conjunction with the Commissioner and appropriate health authorities, to promulgate rules and regulations specifying those diseases against which immunizations may be required.
