Exploring the impact of the New York State repeal of nonmedical vaccination exemptions on student enrollment, absenteeism, and school workload: Perspectives from a survey of school administrators.

In June 2019, New York State (NYS) adopted Senate Bill 2994A eliminating nonmedical vaccine exemptions from school entry laws. Since student noncompliance with the law required school exclusion, we sought to evaluate the law's effects on student enrollment and absenteeism, and school workloads related to its implementation. In November 2019, we sent an electronic survey to NYS (excluding New York City) schools.
