mRNA vaccinations; prohibit use of in food products and livestock intended for human consumption.
HB 811 prohibits the use of mRNA vaccines in livestock, poultry, or food products intended for human consumption in Mississippi. It directly affects farmers, ranchers, and food processors who raise or handle animals or produce for human consumption. The bill bans administering mRNA vaccines to these animals, defines "mRNA vaccine" for regulatory purposes, and allows meat products to be labeled "mRNA free" if animals weren’t given such vaccines. Violations would be misdemeanors, and the bill amended Mississippi’s food safety laws to include these provisions. The bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not become law.
