AB1090,1,3
1An Act to amend 252.041 (1) (a) of the statutes;
relating to: restricting
2compulsory vaccination during a state of emergency to only vaccines for which
3the vaccine manufacturer is liable for injury.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, during a state of emergency related to public health in
which the Department of Health Services is designated as the lead agency, DHS may
order any individual to receive a vaccination unless the vaccination is reasonably
likely to lead to serious harm to the individual or unless the individual, for reasons
of religion or conscience, refuses to obtain the vaccination. This bill restricts DHS
from ordering any individual to receive a vaccination unless the vaccine
manufacturer is liable for any injuries caused by the receipt of the vaccination.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
