Pennsylvania HB2378 amends the Elderly Immunization Act to expand eligibility for pneumococcal and influenza vaccinations. The bill redefines "eligible person" to include individuals aged 65 and older for pneumococcal vaccination and those aged 50 and older for influenza vaccination. This change broadens the scope of individuals who can receive these vaccinations, potentially increasing immunization rates among high-risk populations. The act will take effect 60 days after enactment.
