AI Generated Summary
This legislative bill, SF No 839, mandates that a minor (someone under the age of 18) can only receive a vaccine if their parent or legal guardian is physically present at the time the vaccine is administered. However, there are exceptions to this rule that allow for minors to consent to certain vaccines without the presence of their parent or legal guardian, as specified in other sections of Minnesota law. This bill seeks to add this requirement into Minnesota's statutes.
