Arab Weather - About 14,000 people in Britain have filed compensation claims with the government due to alleged damages resulting from receiving Corona vaccines, according to recent figures.

According to the Telegraph, compensation has already been awarded to people who suffered health problems such as stroke, heart attacks, serious blood clots, inflammation of the spinal cord and facial paralysis. About 97% of these claims relate to the AstraZeneca vaccine, while the rest relate to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.

Compensation Scheme

Since the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme (VDPS) was set up in the UK in 1979, it has received around 16,000 claims, with the Covid-19 vaccine the main reason for most of them. Despite warnings about blood clots linked to the AstraZeneca vaccine, the government continued to recommend its use even after vaccinations were halted in several European countries by March 2021.

Thousands of people have had their claims rejected by doctors, who said there was no clear evidence the vaccine caused harm, while hundreds more have had their claims rejected because they did not meet the criteria for “sufficient disability”. People who can prove they have suffered significant problems are eligible for compensation of £120,000, but the government has only paid out 175 cases, less than 2% of claims.

Earlier this year, AstraZeneca admitted for the first time in a High Court legal document that its vaccine can cause blood clots and low platelet counts in very rare cases. After assessing the potentially serious side effects, scientists recommended alternative vaccines for people under 40, as the risk of the AstraZeneca vaccine is considered greater than the risk of coronavirus.
