Standard Form 601 (SF 601): Immunization Record

Standard Form 601 (SF 601), Immunization Record, is a two-sided health record sheet for vaccinations and sensitivity tests. Its footer reads Standard Form 601, October 1975 (Rev.), General Services Administration & Interagency Committee on Medical Records, and GSA hosts a copy in its forms library. The top of the form says all entries in ink to be made in block letter, and the back says the record is issued in accordance with Article 99, WHO Sanitary Regulation No.2.
