Bill Summary

This bill prohibits the operation of a vaccination clinic at schools during school hours with the exception of clinics which solely administer influenza vaccinations and clinics operating during public health emergencies.

AI Summary

This bill, titled "Limiting times vaccine clinics may operate at schools, with certain exceptions," proposes to amend existing law by adding a new section that prohibits public elementary or secondary schools, or chartered public schools, from hosting vaccination clinics during regular school hours. However, this restriction has two key exceptions: it does not apply to clinics that *solely* administer influenza vaccinations, nor does it apply during a declared public health emergency, which is a situation officially recognized by state or federal authorities as posing a significant risk to public health. The bill also clarifies that these changes do not impact the existing responsibilities of school nurses.
