People arrive to receive the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine during opening day of the Community Vaccination Site, a collaboration between the city of Seattle, First & Goal Inc. and Swedish Health Services at the Lumen Field Event Center in Seattle, Washington on March 13, 2021.
At its core, HB 1531 aims to establish a rule that any public health response to diseases must be based on “the best available science.” The goal? To ensure that health policies, like vaccines and disease control, are rooted in solid, evidence-backed strategies. Sounds pretty straightforward, right? But, as with most things these days, it’s a lot more complicated than it seems.
The bill’s sponsor, Representative Dan Bronoske , told the committee he chairs, “This bill does not carry any mandates. What the bill does do is require that local health authorities base their response to communicable diseases on the best available science, on the safety and efficacy of evidence-based practices – full stop.”
Representative Matt Marshall argued that HB 1531 is a step too far, essentially giving power to unelected bureaucrats.
