Provides that the Department of Children and Family Services is prohibited from removing a child from his or her parent or any other person responsible for the child's welfare on the basis of neglect because of the parent's or other responsible adult's refusal to get the child vaccinated against COVID-19 or make the child wear a face mask due to the COVID-19 public health emergency.
