Review the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme

Review the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme — 4,140 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

We call on the Government to review the current Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme, as we believe it is not supporting those affected, is inefficient, out-dated, and is compounding harm.

Additional details

As of 25 September 2024, 15,804 claims have been received by the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme relating to ill-effects from Covid-19 vaccinations. Of these, only 188 have been awarded a Vaccine Damage Payment. We believe that to rebuild trust from the general public, there needs to be a more effective, compassionate means of support for those adversely affected by vaccination. We believe it is time for change, and the UK needs a vaccine injury scheme of which it can be proud.
