HB 1475 prohibits Oklahoma schools from requiring COVID-19 vaccinations for student enrollment or attendance, banning "vaccine passports," and ending mask mandates specifically for unvaccinated students. It also prohibits discrimination against students based on vaccination status in activities, seating, or surveys. Schools violating these rules face a 5% reduction in state funding for two fiscal years. The bill affects all public, private, charter, and higher education institutions in Oklahoma and takes effect July 1, 2025. It does not change requirements for other childhood vaccines like measles or polio.
