Text

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 fetal death 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 fetal death 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 certificate state the result of the test.
