Bill Summary
Vaccines, parental consent for minor to receive vaccine, required
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law in Alabama to require parental consent for an unemancipated minor to receive a vaccination, with exceptions for minors who are not dependent on their parents or guardians, are living apart from them, and are managing their own affairs. The bill also removes language that previously allowed minors aged 14 or older, high school graduates, married individuals, and pregnant minors to give effective consent for certain medical, dental, and mental health services without parental approval. The bill will take effect on October 1, 2024.
