South Carolina H4803 amends the state code to require the Department of Public Health to include information on medical and religious exemptions in all communications about childhood or school-entry immunizations. This includes printed materials, digital content, and public awareness campaigns. The Department must also share this information with the State Department of Education. Additionally, schools must annually inform parents about the availability of these exemptions and how to apply for them.
