Connecticut Stands Firm on Vaccine Schedule

Published 3 weeks, 3 days ago
Description

Connecticuts Governor Ned Lamont introduces House Bill 5044 to solidify the states vaccine schedule and reduce federal influence. The bill enhances the public health commissioners authority, ensures insurance coverage for recommended shots, and diversifies vaccine procurement. However, it faces opposition due to concerns about a standard of care label potentially limiting access for those skipping shots and debates over the Religious Freedom Restoration Acts implications on school vaccine rules. The Public Health Committee has approved the bill, awaiting full votes in the House and Senate.
