Vaccine Injury Compensation

Vaccine Industry Receives Government Financial Bailouts via Vaccine Injury Compensation Program

'The
Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) was established as part
of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) of 1986. VAERS is
sponsored by the CDC and FDA, both vaccine friendly government agencies.
Another part of the NCVIA is the establishment of a federal "no fault"
compensation program for parents of vaccine injured or killed children.
The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP) was set up to
award claims to parents through the US Court of Federal Claims. Of
course, claimants had to establish a causal connection with their
child's issues from recent vaccinations.
The compensations vary from $250,000 for the death of a child, or a life
time of medical coverage for a brain damaged child. The awards are
federally funded, "bailing out" vaccine manufacturers from financial
liability. The fact that over $1 billion has been paid out since 1986 is
the government's secret admission of vaccine dangers.'

Vaccine Damage Payment



If
you're severely disabled as a result of a vaccination against certain
diseases, you may be able to get a Vaccine Damage Payment. This is a
one-off tax-free payment of £120,000. Find out more about Vaccine
Damage Payment including how to claim.
Who can claim Vaccine Damage Payment

You
may be able to get a payment if you're severely disabled and your
disability was caused by vaccination against any of the following
diseases:

• diphtheria
  
• tetanus
  
• pertussis (whooping cough)
  
• poliomyelitis
  
• measles
  
• mumps
  
• rubella (German measles)
  
• tuberculosis (TB)
  
• haemophilus influenzae type B (HIB)
  
• meningococcal group C (meningitis C)
  
• pneumococcal infection
  
• human papillomavirus
  
• pandemic influenza A (H1N1) 2009 (swine flu) - up to 31 August 2010
  
• smallpox - up to 1 August 1971
  

You may have had a combined vaccination against a
number of the diseases listed. For example, you might have been
vaccinated against DTP (diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis) or MMR
(measles, mumps and rubella).
You may also be able to get a payment if you're thought to be severely disabled because either:

• your mother was vaccinated against one of the diseases in the list while she was pregnant
  
• you've been in close physical contact with someone who's been
  vaccinated against poliomyelitis with vaccine that was given orally
  

What counts as 'severely disabled'

Disablement
is worked out as a percentage, and 'severe disablement' means at least
60 per cent disabled. This could be a mental or physical disablement.
For example, total loss of sight or hearing is usually counted as 100 per cent.

When and where the vaccination must have taken place

To
be eligible for Vaccine Damage Payment, you must normally have been
vaccinated before your 18th birthday. This does not apply if the
vaccination was during an outbreak of disease in the UK or the Isle of
Man, or it was against:

• poliomyelitis
  
• rubella
  
• Meningococcal Group C
  
• human papillomavirus
  
• pandemic influenza A (H1N1) 2009 (swine flu)
  

The vaccination must have been given in the UK or the Isle of Man.
If the vaccination was given outside the UK, you may get a payment if
you were vaccinated as part of Armed Forces medical treatment.

When to claim

If you're claiming on behalf of a child, you must wait until they're at least two years old.
The claim must be made by whichever is the later of the following dates:

• on or before the disabled person's 21st birthday (or if they've died, the date they would have reached 21)
  
• within six years of the date the vaccination took place
  

How much do you get

The amount is £120,000, tax free.

How Vaccine Damage Payment is paid

You'll get payment direct to you or, if you're under 18 or can't manage your own affairs, payment will be made to trustees.
If you live with your family, your parents may be appointed as trustees.
All benefits, pensions and allowances are paid into an account. This is
the safest, most convenient and efficient method of payment.

Effect on other benefits

Your Vaccine Damage Payment can affect other benefits and entitlements like:

• Income Support
  
• Income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
  
• Working Tax Credit
  
• Child Tax Credit
  
• Pension Credit
  
• Housing Benefit
  
• Council Tax Benefit
  
• Employment and Support Allowance
  

The effect the payment will have depends on a number
of things. This includes the payment being put into a trust and the
payments being made from it.
You should let the office that deals with your benefit or tax credit
claim know if you've got a Vaccine Damage Payment. They will then be
able give you more information.
