Vaccines save lives, but rare side effects result in serious injuries.
We believe in the importance of vaccination, and we know that rare, severe, and debilitating reactions do occur.
Help is available through the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.
In 1986, after a series of lawsuits threatened to cause vaccine shortages and reduce U.S. vaccinations rates, the U.S. Congress passed the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, creating the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP).
The VICP allows individuals to file a petition for financial compensation if they have had a severe reaction to a vaccine.
Perhaps you or a loved one has an illness or injury that occurred after vaccination. Maybe symptoms appeared suddenly. Maybe doctors cannot explain the cause of the illness.

We are not accepting COVID-19 vaccine injury cases at this time as the COVID-19 vaccine is not currently included in the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.

Doctors and others may not have believed you. We will listen. We understand that a vaccine may have in fact caused your injury.
