(2) Certification from a licensed physician stating the student has experienced the natural disease against which the immunization protects;
(3) Confirmation from a laboratory of the presence of adequate immunity; or
(4) A written statement signed by the student that the student is an adherent to a religious doctrine whose teachings are opposed to such immunizations. If the student is under the age of eighteen, the written statement shall be signed by one parent or guardian.Source: SL 2007, ch 119, § 2.
