S 766 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides for identification and study of infant fatalities and near fatalities resulting from vaccination; requires inclusion of vaccination information in sudden infant death reports; and requires use of federal infant death reporting form.

This bill requires physicians to include all vaccines administered to infants in the six months before a sudden or unexpected death in the standard infant death investigation report. It directs the Child Fatality Review Board to study whether vaccination contributed to infant deaths or near-fatalities by analyzing these reports. The board must identify patterns, determine vaccination's role in fatalities, and submit a report to the Governor and Legislature within one year. The policy affects infants, their healthcare providers, and the review board, focusing on data collection for future prevention efforts without altering vaccination requirements.
