SHALL NOTIFY THE SECRETARY.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Article
43, §§ 53, 81, the first, second, and third
clauses of § 52, and the first, third, and fourth
sentences of § 80.

In subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the
former references to specific diseases are
deleted as unnecessary. See revisor's note to §
18-201 of this subtitle.

In subsection (c)(2) of this section, the defined
term "Secretary" is substituted for the obsolete
reference to the former State Board of Health.

The fourth and fifth clauses of former Article
43, § 52, which listed duties of the Secretary
and enabled the health officer to exercise the
powers of the Secretary, are deleted as
unnecessary in light of the duties of the
Secretary and health officers under §§ 18-101 and
3-306(b) of this article, respectively.

Defined terms: "County" § 1-101

"Health officer" § 1-101 "Secretary" § 1-101

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the second
sentence of former Article 43, § 80.

The term "county board of education" is
substituted for the term "school authorities",
for clarity.

The second sentence of former Article 43, § 79,
which imposed a similar duty on the county boards
of health, is deleted as unnecessary in light of
this section.
