immunizations; requirements; exemption
HB 2055 creates a new exemption from required immunizations (for school, work, or licensing) if no vaccine meets seven specific safety and transparency criteria. These criteria include long-term cancer/fertility studies, two-year clinical trials with placebo comparison, public reporting of vaccine injuries, combined vaccine safety data, proof the vaccine is safer than the disease itself, and manufacturer liability for defects. The exemption applies to individuals or their dependents and cannot be restricted by state agencies. It does not change existing immunization requirements but establishes this narrow path for those whose vaccine fails to meet all seven criteria.
