A woman whose partner died after having an AstraZeneca jab has become the first person to receive compensation over a Covid vaccine death.
Ms Spit also said she had to wait too long for compensation under the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme 1979, and the amount had not kept track with inflation since the scheme was set up. The scheme offers one-off, tax-free sums of up to £120,000 and while payments do not affect people's rights to take legal action, they can have implications for their benefits.Ms Spit called an ambulance for Zion when he began suffering "excruciating" headaches on 13 May last year and he died in Newcastle's Royal Victoria Infirmary six days later.
Money won’t bring him back; but that is a disgraceful amount smh!!
PheonixRising22 But surely hundreds of thousands of people in the UK alone have now died following vaccination ? What's so special about this one ? Or perhaps you actually meant to report that the vaccine killed him ? If so why not say that ? And why not take responsibility for your role.
SuzanneEvans1 I’m surprised she got any.
This should be on the news at ten
Chickenpe11ets They deliberately set the bar low As they knew damn well there would be millions dying from it over the next few years
The lawsuits begin!
Chriswalshuk1 AZ didn't pay. They have full legal immunity. The tax payers did..
It is. Grossly. Hopefully the corrupt scum that produced these dangerous and ineffective products and the evil bastards that coerced people into taking them will face full liability for each and every adverse event in the months and years to come.
10k+ on average, goes on funeral expenses
£120k is a very adequate amount for its intended 'compensation'.
ClaireLeeF People preferd to call us conspiracy theorists rather then just took some time to do some reaserch and any sane person could have seen Something stunk about this whole thing. Have you ever heard about a pandemic that knew not to go to asda or tesco as people needed food 😂
Shame on the BBC for choosing not to report on the shocking (and soaring) number of injuries and deaths of this type. And you have the audacity to call yourselves a ‘public service’? It’s in the public’s best interests to know the TRUTH.
Anyone here want to take a guess at how many of the replies in here are made by people paid to be here and run damage control? I bet it’s not zero.
BBC were paid to sell the jab hard, media need to contribute.
It was the that was part of the propaganda to sell the jab hard and scare everyone inc the elderly and those at risk, when in fact the risks were like a flu or almost zero for 99%. Defund the BBC.
First of many. WHY aren't you reporting on this piersmorgan PiersUncensored gmb thismorning 🤬🤬
Hang on so this person died after the jab, literally thousands testing positive after 3 or 4 doses yet we’re led to believe those words “safe and effective?”
It's amazing how these people always think money makes everything okay. He had 21 years to make provision for her in the event of his death and failed to do so. No doubt ambulance chasing lawyers will be all over this.
Too right it's inadequate. For the provider (Gov + pharma) to have the right incentives, compensation should = 'value of life' per standard economics = few million £. Although arguably those vaccinated (or Gov) should also pay up to the expected value of vaccine health benefits.
She says in the article that she's 'not anti-vax'. Good luck with that.
Enough people have died from getting vacinated. The strongest will have to resign themselves to primate smallpox.
Well luckily I didn't die so I geuss I can't claim anything? If its a direct thing that it killed them she should be looking at millions! I know a guy got 1 million for Somone cutting his hand off at work and the Health and safety wasn't up to and that's one hand!
hicksyalex Should be his annual salary until he is 81, AND THEN damages on top. But i guess he was dumb enough to take it in the first place 🤷🏻♂️ mind u the sales reps at the played a part in that.
do you accept liability for your fear propaganda killing these people?
Don’t give any money
surely this is fake - you spent 2 years telling us the vaccines were unequivocally safe and had no side effects...
So sorry for your loss 💔 This is just one person sadly but there are many more. Thank you MarkSteynOnline and GBNEWS for letting us hear the truth 🙏 otherwise I don't think the BBC would be sharing this
Someone’s life + big pharma profits = taking the piss
