House Bill # 322 |
| Primary Sponsor: | Maier | Additional Sponsor(s): Sen. Blevins |
| CoSponsors: | { NONE...} |
| Introduced on : | 03/05/2008 | |
| Long Title: | AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 16 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO IMMUNIZATIONS CONTAINING MERCURY. |
| Synopsis: | This bill provides that vaccines containing mercury may not be given to children under 8 years of age or to pregnant women, except under the special circumstances described in the bill.
This bill is a "curative" statute which corrects an unintended statutory flaw in House Substitute No. 1 for House Bill No. 194, and tracks the language enacted as 16 Del. C. §510 on July 12, 2007. However, a bill enacted in 2005 [House Substitute No. 2 to House Bill No. 108] struck and replaced that language as of January 1, 2008; hence, the retroactivity of this bill to January 2, 2008.
The word "Director" in this bill, as defined in 16 Del. C. §101(3), means "the Director of the Division of Public Health, or such persons as may be designated by the Director."
