AB 499 allows children 12 years of age or older to seek medical care for the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases without the consent of parents, including vaccinations against human papillomavirus, or HPV.

The California Senate passed the billed recently on a 22-17 vote.  The Governor can take action on this bill between September 9th and October 9th.
