This bill imposes liability on manufacturers and distributors for claims for losses arising from the administration or use of certain vaccines. The bill also limits the authority of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to incorporate new vaccines into the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), which compensates individuals for injuries or deaths associated with routinely administered vaccines. Current law generally provides liability protections for manufacturers and distributors of pandemic and epidemic products and security countermeasures (which include vaccines). This bill specifies that the liability protections shall not apply to the administration of vaccines that are (1) licensed biological products or approved for use under emergency procedures, and (2) required by federal or state governments (or federally funded entities). The bill also permits individuals to sue manufacturers and distributors in state or federal courts without first seeking compensation through the VICP process for injuries or deaths caused by the administration of such vaccines. Additionally, HHS may not add a vaccine to the Vaccine Injury Table (which lists the vaccines that are covered by the VICP) if the vaccine (1) is required by the federal government or a federally funded entity, and (2) is administered without obtaining informed consent or providing a religious exemption (if requested by the individual receiving the vaccine).
