AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 16 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE PREVENTION AND CONTROL.
Signed
Summary
The bill modernizes Delaware’s sexually transmitted disease (STD) laws by removing the health department’s power to examine, isolate, or quarantine individuals and by loosening the one‑day lab reporting deadline. It requires health‑care providers to offer STD testing, including prenatal screening, but lets pregnant patients refuse testing with documented counseling. The changes also clarify that STIs are treated the same as STDs and repeal outdated provisions such as unlicensed blood draws by investigators.
