What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, during a state of emergency related to public health in
which the Department of Health Services is designated as the lead agency, DHS may
order any individual to receive a vaccination unless the vaccination is reasonably
likely to lead to serious harm to the individual or unless the individual, for reasons
of religion or conscience, refuses to obtain the vaccination. This bill restricts DHS
from ordering any individual to receive a vaccination unless the vaccine
manufacturer is liable for any injuries caused by the receipt of the vaccination.
