Bill > HB4681

This bill creates an exception to existing law in West Virginia, which generally limits the civil liability of pharmaceutical companies for injuries caused by prescription drugs or medical devices when they provide adequate warnings to healthcare providers, a concept known as the "learned intermediary doctrine." Specifically, this bill allows West Virginia citizens to sue pharmaceutical companies in state courts for damages resulting from the COVID-19 vaccines, and importantly, removes any limits on the amount of financial awards they can receive in such lawsuits.
