End the Vaccine Carveout Act: Removing Liability Protection for Manufacturers

This bill allows individuals to sue vaccine manufacturers and administrators in court for injuries or deaths. It removes the legal shield that previously protected these companies from most private lawsuits.
Key points
Citizens can now choose between seeking government compensation or filing a private lawsuit against manufacturers.
Vaccine manufacturers lose their special immunity from legal liability, specifically including COVID-19 vaccine makers.
The bill enables direct legal action in state or federal courts for vaccine-related damages.
A 'one-choice' rule is established: receiving a court settlement prevents government compensation, and vice versa.
