The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) announced the receipt of petitions for compensation under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. This program offers compensation to individuals injured by specific childhood vaccines. Petitions are filed with the United States Court of Federal Claims, and the Secretary of Health and Human Services is tasked with responding. A list of the petitions, including names and locations, was provided, and interested individuals can submit relevant information to support the cases.
Simple Explanation
The government has a special program to help people who get hurt by certain vaccines, and many people have asked for this help. A special court will look at these requests and decide if they should get the help.
