Discover how global vaccine injury compensation works, as well as the
schemes and shady governmental facilities involved.
Vaccine Injury Compensation: How Countries Decide Who Is Compensated
and Why looks at the mysterious and often unknown world of the National
Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP), the only recourse for
seeking compensation for those who have been injured by a vaccine.
Author Wayne Rohde compares the NVICP against other countries' programs,
the pluses and minuses of each program, and the differences between
traditional vaccines and COVID-19-related vaccines. Rohde will also
explore the very complex, dark, and non-transparent COVAX Facility, the
organization established by the World Health Organization; GAVI, the
Vaccine Alliance; and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to obtain
and distribute vaccines to low-income nations and, at the same time,
provide an injury compensation program for those countries.
The book will explore several countries and analyze their vaccine injury
compensation programs (or schemes) for traditional vaccines such as
measles or influenza, and compensation programs for the COVID-19
vaccine. The United States, Canada, United Kingdom, European Union,
South Africa, Southeast Asia, Japan, some South American countries,
Russia, and China will all be covered. The COVID-19 vaccine injury
schemes bring up some very interesting and controversial topics. First,
many countries were late to create a compensation program. Second, the
delay in processing and compensating injured persons is now gathering
more spotlight by alternative media. And third, for the first time, a
non-governmental entity was created to provide not only distribution of
the vaccine but also compensation of the vaccine, a.k.a. the COVAX
Facility. Who controls the COVAX Facility, is there any legal options
for the injured, and why are countries forced to relinquish sovereignty
in order to obtain the vaccine?
