I can't find any text in the article that supports the headline. The closest would be this paragraph:
Making major changes to the program may open up vaccine makers to more litigation, making it difficult for them to keep existing vaccines on the market or to produce new ones.
The Guardian says his intent is to make vaccine compensation easier (opposite the headline), and that this would be damaging to vaccine makers. They speculate that the end result will be less vaccine availability. If this is true, with fewer vaccines there may be fewer opportunities for injury compensation. However, this is quite a spin on the initial claims that he wants to reduce vaccine manufacturer's liability shield.
