Protecting Bibb Families

A Data Guide for Vaccines in Bibb County

The Current Landscape

Bibb County tells a story of Early Protection, Procedural Barriers. While our toddler immunization rates are commendable—with 90.0% of toddlers receiving their MMR—protection levels fall drastically by school entry.

The Kindergarten Up-To-Date rate sits at a critical 78.3%. Unlike counties driven primarily by refusals, Bibb faces a unique dual challenge: an 8.8% Religious Exemption rate, compounded by a massive 12.9% of students simply listed as "Not Up-To-Date"—indicating that access and paperwork hurdles are currently a bigger barrier than hesitancy.

Note on the data: For specific MMR and TDaP vaccination rates: All vaccine administration records and demographic data for children born between February 01, 2022 and May 31, 2024 were obtained from the Georgia Registry of Immunization Transactions and Services (GRITS). Data cleaning removed records if they contained no childhood vaccines, were out-of-state, duplicated, created for testing, or created as a placeholder at birth, or if a child died, resulting in 286,826 records. Each record was evaluated and if all doses of a vaccine were correctly administered by 36 months, the child was considered up-to-date on (or covered by) that vaccine.
