Bill > S04545

This bill repeals Section 2307 of the New York Public Health Law, which previously dealt with legal provisions related to individuals who know they are infected with a venereal disease (a sexually transmitted infection). The bill completely eliminates this section of law and ensures that no new prosecutions or ongoing legal actions can be initiated under the now-repealed statute. By removing this law, the bill effectively eliminates any legal penalties or specific requirements that previously existed for individuals who were aware of their venereal disease status. The repeal takes effect immediately, meaning that the law is nullified as soon as the bill is enacted, and any existing or potential legal proceedings under this section are automatically terminated.
