Establishes the Children's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System within the New Jersey Department of Health to collect reports of adverse events in children under 19 years old occurring within eight weeks of vaccination

Mandates that health care providers (physicians, physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists, and other licensed vaccine administrators) report any adverse event in a vaccinated child, regardless of whether they believe the vaccine caused the event

Applies reporting requirements to providers in emergency departments and urgent care centers who treat children experiencing adverse events post-vaccination

Requires reports to include provider and child information, specific adverse events experienced, vaccination date, vaccines administered, and product inserts

Authorizes sharing of data only with public health entities analyzing vaccine safety data (without identifying children or providers) and with the federal VAERS system for events not already subject to mandatory federal reporting
