As kids go back to school, health leaders warn about struggling vaccination rates

Childhood vaccination rates in Michigan dropped to around 70% after the pandemic, contributing to 27 measles cases in 2025, state health leaders said.

  • Fayette County Health Department is holding a Health and Safety Fair on September 6 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the courthouse parking area in Fayette County.
  • The fair responds to concerns as state health leaders raise alarms about declining childhood vaccination rates and recent measles outbreaks in Michigan and Ontario.
  • The event will feature local healthcare vendors, public safety services, flu shots, back-to-school vaccinations, and activities with free food prepared by Zion Baptist Church.
  • Michigan reported 27 measles cases in 2025, and one school achieved 51 of 52 kindergartners vaccinated, while rates fell from about 75% pre-pandemic to the mid-60s during COVID.
  • Officials hope the fair promotes awareness of health resources, helps reverse vaccination delays caused by the pandemic, and addresses potential changes in vaccine coverage policies.
