SB 609, as introduced, Stone. Communicable disease: prevention and control.
Existing law, the Communicable Disease Prevention and Control Act, imposes various functions and duties on the State Department of Public Health and local health officers with respect to the prevention and control of communicable diseases. The act provides that a health officer includes county, city, and district health officers, and city and district health boards, but not advisory health boards.
This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to this provision.
