Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
Bill 119 HR 1432, also known as the "COVID-19 Vaccine Manufacturer Accountability Act," aims to prevent any Federal law from granting immunity to manufacturers of COVID-19 vaccines from lawsuits or liability. The bill specifically prohibits limitations on the liability of vaccine manufacturers in cases where individuals experience loss or harm as a result of receiving or using a COVID-19 vaccine.
The purpose of this legislation is to ensure that individuals who may suffer adverse effects from a COVID-19 vaccine have the ability to seek legal recourse against the manufacturer. By preventing immunity or limitations on liability, the bill aims to hold vaccine manufacturers accountable for any harm caused by their products.
In addition to addressing liability issues, the bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to COVID-19 vaccine administration and use. This legislation is significant in ensuring that individuals have the ability to seek justice in cases where they experience harm from a COVID-19 vaccine, without being hindered by legal protections granted to manufacturers.
