This bill proposes the creation of a new section in chapter 23-12 of the North Dakota Century Code, which establishes an exemption for individuals from required vaccines under specific conditions. The bill defines "department" as the department of health and human services and mandates that the department publicizes the existence of this exemption. Individuals required to receive vaccines for employment, school attendance, or licensing may claim an exemption if there is no FDA-approved vaccine that meets certain criteria, including safety evaluations, public disclosure of vaccine-related injuries, and proof that the vaccine's risks are less than those posed by the disease it prevents.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the vaccine manufacturer must be liable for any serious injury or death caused by the vaccine. The department is tasked with informing the public about the exemption process, which can be claimed on behalf of oneself or a dependent. Furthermore, it prohibits state agencies, political subdivisions, boards, or commissions from imposing any conditions that contradict this exemption.
