Bill Summary
This bill requires automatic registration with the New Jersey Immunization Information System (NJIIS) upon the administration of a vaccine for persons who are not currently registered with the NJIIS and unless the person or the person's parent or legal guardian, in the case of a person younger than 18 years of age, provides a written request not to participate in the registry. The NJIIS is a Statewide database that maintains records of individual vaccination histories. Individuals born after January 1, 1998 are automatically included in the registry, unless the individual's parent or guardian provides a written request that the person not be included in the registry; individuals born prior to January 1, 1998 may be included in the registry by written request. This bill requires any person who is not currently enrolled in the registry to be automatically enrolled at the time the person is administered a vaccine, unless the person or the person's parent or legal guardian, in the case of a person younger than 18 years of age, provides a written request not to participate in the registry.
