To create state civil liability for pharmaceutical companies for vaccine injuries from the Covid 19 vaccines

HB 2430 creates a specific exception to West Virginia's product liability laws for Covid-19 vaccines. It allows West Virginia residents who suffered injuries from these vaccines to sue pharmaceutical companies directly in state courts, removing the usual legal protection (learned intermediary doctrine) that shields manufacturers if they provided adequate warnings to healthcare providers. The bill explicitly states that financial awards for vaccine-related injuries have no limits. This change directly affects pharmaceutical companies producing Covid-19 vaccines and West Virginia citizens seeking compensation for vaccine injuries. It amends state law to make civil liability for these specific vaccines distinct from general prescription drug liability rules.
