Under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, certain classes of adverse reactions from vaccinations which result in permanent harm to children are compensable by filing a claim. There are certain statutory requirements which must be met before these cases are deemed to be compensable.
The hazards of vaccines are a widely discussed topic, but there is no question that a certain number of children each year do suffer adverse reactions from the vaccinations they receive. Some vaccines which are mandatory for children to attend school have been linked to causing long-term illness later in life. Some authorities maintain that vaccines are harmful to a child’s nervous system; others deny this claim. There are certainly side-effects to vaccines, including seizures, developmental delay, and in some rare instances wrongful death.
The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act is a federal statute which enables parents to recover for adverse reactions to their children as a result of a variety of commonly administered vaccines.
