Allow Religious Exemptions for vaccines

Summary

The bill amends West Virginia law to let individuals avoid mandated vaccines if they provide a notarized statement of religious, conscientious, or personal objection. It applies to state employees, school‑age children, child‑care attendees, and college students, and bars employers from penalizing workers who claim the exemption. The measure also sets up a process for the health commissioner to handle medical exemptions and imposes penalties for false vaccination certificates.
