HB 1194 (2024)

Remove word "infectious" from definition of noncommunicable disease

Summary:

Removes the word "infectious" from the definition of noncommunicable disease, leaving behind the definition of "transmissible from person-to-person." This would likely limit the state's ability to mandate some vaccines in the future.

The House amended the bill to carve out an exception for the state to require tetanus shots.
