Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme to Be Reviewed as Claims Soar
The Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme, which helps those left disabled after having a vaccine and families of those who died, is to be reviewed after a massive rise in claims following the Covid jab rollout. The Mail has more.
Health Secretary Victoria Atkins has asked officials in her department to look at how the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme (VDPS) could be reformed.
It comes amid concerns that it is struggling to cope following a huge number of claims from those suffering from side-effects after having the COVID-19 jab.
Claims rose to 4,008 last year – up from 480 in 2022, [48 in 2021], 26 in 2020 and 27 in 2019, official figures show. Separate data reveals that up to April 26th this year, 11,022 claims were made to the scheme in connection with Covid jabs.
It is not a compensation scheme but is intended to “ease the present and future burdens of those suffering from severe vaccine damage, and their families”. Victims and families are still entitled to sue for compensation.
Financing the scheme has risen from £600,000 in 2021-22 to £16.1 million in 2023-24. Its one-off £120,000 payment has not risen in line with inflation since 2007. Minister Esther McVey is understood to be among those calling for reforms to the scheme.

It says ‘see more at’ Daily Sceptic, but the article is shown in full. If you want to know what kind of site it is before going to it, here’s a quote:
“Don’t let the doom goblin and her fellow ‘anti-Zionists’ win. Find out how to cast your vote in Eurovision for 20 year-old Eden Golan and send a message to all the keffiyeh-wearing Israelophobes.”
I don’t know what a keffiyeh is, and I don’t care. I’m not a child voting for prom queen. Personally, I think that every foreign nation should keep their shit to themselves, and our politicians should be suiting up their own children first.

The Daily Skeptic is far more believable than governments who lied about the untested vaccines that are having devastating consequences .

The last bit about yet about vaccine made me wonder when they’ll create a vaccine to deal with the effects of the current vaccines

Hi PSI Readers,
Some people, like Mike J, acknowledge their mistakes and others ignore their mistakes. The latter greatly outnumber the Mike J’s of our time.
Have a good day
