Create a temporary price cap to pertussis vaccines.

Created by R.B. on December 18, 2012

In the past decade, there have been two major epidemics of pertussis. The effects of these epidemics have been seen mostly in those between 0-19 years of age. All children need to have equal access to the vaccine, as do those that come in contact with them such as family members, school employees, and healthcare workers. In order to improve access to the vaccine before the Affordable Care Act takes full effect, there should be a temporary price cap on DTaP and Tdap.
