The Immunization Registry went live in 2004, and some older records have not been entered. Other ways to get vaccine records: You may try asking a previous health care provider you saw in Vermont. They may still have a paper record. You could also try contacting the school you last attended. Many schools require immunization histories. You may choose to speak with your primary care provider about other options and next steps. Can medical guardians request vaccine records?
