§ 63-1-516

In reporting every birth and stillbirth, physicians, and others permitted to attend pregnancy cases and required to report births and stillbirths, shall state on the birth certificate or stillbirth certificate, as the case may be, whether a blood test for syphilis has been made during such pregnancy upon a specimen of blood taken from the woman who bore the child for which a birth or stillbirth certificate is filed and, if made, the date when such test was made, and, if not made, the reason why such test was not made. In no event shall the birth certificate state the result of the test. Laws 1963, c. 325, art. 5, § 516, operative July 1, 1963.
