Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Communicable Disease Prevention Act. Adds, in the public policy Section, invasive pneumococcal disease to the list of communicable diseases that can result in serious physical and mental disabilities. Requires the Department of Public Health to promulgate rules and regulations, within 30 days of the effective date of the amendatory Act, requiring the age-appropriate series of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, as recommended by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, to a child younger than 2 years of age who is enrolled or enrolling in a licensed child care facility, as that term is defined in the Child Care Act of 1969. Requires the Department to also establish protocols for children younger than 2 years of age to catch up on missed doses. Provides that a child care facility must be able to furnish proof of compliance with these provisions for all children at the facility, beginning January 1, 2008. Provides exceptions to the vaccination requirements if; (1) the parent or guardian of the child objects thereto on the grounds that the administration of immunizing agents conflicts with his or her religious tenets or practices; or (2) a physician employed by the parent or guardian to provide care and treatment to the child states that the physical condition of the child is such that the administration of the required immunizing agent would be detrimental to the health of the child. Effective July 1, 2007.
