A project, to digitalise application process
If you’re severely disabled as a result of a vaccination against certain diseases,
you could get a one-off tax-free payment of £120,000.
This is called a Vaccine Damage Payment.
You can also apply for this payment on behalf of someone who has died after becoming severely disabled because of certain vaccinations.
You could get a payment if you’re severely disabled and your disability was caused by vaccination against any of the following diseases:
• coronavirus (COVID-19)
• diphtheria
• haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib)
• human papillomavirus
• influenza, except for influenza caused by a pandemic influenza virus
• measles
• meningococcal group B (meningitis B)
• meningococcal group C (meningitis C)
• meningococcal group W (meningitis W)
• mumps
• pandemic influenza A (H1N1) 2009 (swine flu) – up to 31 August 2010
• pertussis (whooping cough)
• pneumococcal infection
• poliomyelitis
• rotavirus
• rubella (German measles)
• smallpox – up to 1 August 1971
• tetanus
• tuberculosis (TB)
You may also be able to get a payment if you’re severely disabled because,
your mother was vaccinated against one of the diseases in the list while she was pregnant
What counts as ‘severely disabled’?
Disablement is worked out as a percentage, and ‘severe disablement’ means at least 60% disabled.
This could be a mental or physical disablement,
and will be based on medical evidence from the doctors or hospitals involved in your treatment.

“For anyone who has been left with a lifelong disability or young children, it simply wouldn’t be enough to replace somebody’s income.”
Ms Spit
“The [60 per cent disabled] criteria is a really big [issue],
because there are so many people just left with nothing after being severely injured,
and have life-changing disabilities,
‘well you’re not interested enough’
