So, my an online american friend said"My mom didn’t want to vaccine vax cuzs autism". Is he joking? I know many people say thing like that but i thought they all were joking?
In my country which is a third world country no one believe shit like that even my Grand mother who is illiterate and religious don’t believe thing like that and knows the benefit of vaccine.
Depends on which vaccine. There are two agencies, there is the VICP and the CICP. The VICP only covers a short list of vaccines that doesn’t include COVID. (https://www.hrsa.gov/vaccine-compensation/covered-vaccines). COVID vax is covered by the CICP and doesn’t pay anything out for pain and suffering, only your medical bills for what your insurance didn’t cover from treatment.
I was thinking about the VICP as it’s usually the one involved in child cases. I didn’t know the COVID has an independent one but with the rapid change in vaccine tech, that makes sense.
