Morrison submitted a public comment to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, urging the committee “to consider ways to incentivize, procure, and require production of vaccines that do not have connections to aborted fetal cell lines so that everyone in the U.S. that desires a vaccine to prevent serious disease in themselves and others can receive one without violating their conscience or religious beliefs.”
