  • Requires local health officers to inform parents about the risks of not receiving waived vaccines and the benefits of immunizations to the child and community before witnessing the waiver form signature.

  • Specifies required contents for both the medical contraindication form (physician information, vaccine identification, expiration date of exemption) and the nonmedical waiver form (child information, objection description, acknowledgment of disease risk).
