## Summary

**Creates a presumption that certain illnesses linked to the COVID-19 vaccine are service-connected for service members who received the vaccine under orders between August 24, 2021 and January 10, 2023.** It also requires regular public reporting on related VA claims and allows the VA to add other diseases if evidence supports a connection. - Veterans: Service members who developed listed conditions such as myocarditis, pericarditis, thrombosis with thrombocytopenia, or Guillain-Barré syndrome would be presumed to have service-connected conditions, which generally makes it easier to obtain VA disability compensation. - Department of Veterans Affairs and the public: The VA would publish reports every 60 days for a four-year period showing the total number of vaccine-related claims and the status of each claim by approved, denied, or under appeal. - VA leadership and Congress: The VA Secretary could designate additional diseases as covered when a positive association with the COVID-19 vaccine is found, and must notify the House and Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committees of any additions. - Legal definition: The bill defines “COVID-19 vaccine” to include vaccines licensed under the Public Health Service Act or authorized for emergency use by the Food and Drug Administration.

## Provisions PRIA read

- Easier VA disability for vaccine-injured veterans: benefit, high. If enacted, this would cover veterans and service members who got a COVID-19 shot under orders. The shot must be between August 24, 2021 and January 10, 2023. If a listed disease later appears, VA would presume it was service-connected, even without service records. Covered diseases are myocarditis…
