Bill Summary
For legislation to support physician autonomy and clinical judgment in personalized medical care. Education.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law to support physician autonomy and clinical judgment in personalized medical care. It allows children to be admitted to school upon certification from a physician that vaccination or immunization would endanger the child's health, based on the physician's independent medical judgment. The bill also protects physicians who provide such certifications from disciplinary action or negative consequences, as long as they act in good faith. Additionally, it maintains the existing provision that allows children to be admitted to school without a vaccination certificate if their parent or guardian states in writing that it conflicts with their sincere religious beliefs.
