HB 1661 New Hampshire House · 2024 Regular Session

relative to immunization reporting requirements.

This bill requires medical professionals certifying deaths in New Hampshire to include specific immunization details, such as vaccine names and dates, on death certificates for individuals who received shots in the current year or the two years prior. It also mandates that the state health department publish quarterly and annual reports detailing deaths occurring within various timeframes after vaccination, broken down by demographics and vaccine type. Additionally, the legislation establishes a process for independent, random audits of these reports by non-governmental experts to ensure data accuracy and privacy compliance. The bill applies to all deaths occurring on or after January 1, 2020, and would become effective 60 days after its passage.
