AI Summary
This bill, effective November 1, 2026, establishes that a vaccine manufacturer can be held liable if they "advertise" a vaccine in Oklahoma, which is defined as any paid promotion through media like television, radio, print, or the internet, but excludes discussions between healthcare providers and patients or materials provided in clinical settings. If such advertised vaccine causes harm or injury to an individual, the manufacturer is liable, and the individual has three years from when the issue arises to file a lawsuit. If the individual wins their case, the court must award them their actual damages, court costs, and reasonable attorney fees.
