CONTROL OF COMMUNICABLE DISEASES AND CONDITIONS WHICH MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT PUBLIC HEALTH

Overview

RULE:

64D-3.049

Protocols for Controlling COVID-19 in School Settings

PURPOSE:

In furtherance of the Florida Department of Health’s authority to adopt rules governing the control of preventable communicable diseases—and because students benefit from in-person learning—it is necessary to promulgate a rule regarding COVID-19 safety protocols that protects parents’ rights and to maximize the allowance of in-person education for their children. Unnecessarily removing students from in-person learning poses a threat to the welfare of children, including their social, emotional and educational developmental, and is not necessary absent illness.
