AB-1797 (Weber): CA Immunization Registry
AVFCA Commentary:
Legislation Details
Bill Name: Immunization registry (Weber) – Modernize California’s Immunization Registry
Bill Number: AB-1797
Bill Author(s): Akilah Weber
Legislative Session / Year: 2022
State: California
AVFCA Position: Oppose
Bill Synopsis: Beginning January 1, 2023, all vaccines administered in California – past (as feasibly possible), present and future – will be required to be entered into the CA Immunization Registry (CAIR), causing huge privacy issues for those who do not want their personal medical information in a government database. Unlike consumer databases, government databases are not covered by the CCPA and so there is no way for private consumers, nor undocumented immigrants, to opt out. California is pushing to be the sanctuary state for health rights – abortion, transgender treatment, etc – but is forcing those who want medical privacy to get themselves and their children vaccinated out of state so there is no way their personal information will be hacked or leaked.
