Disappointing Verdict for Woman with Post-Vaccination Headaches

  • *

In a rather unsatisfying turn of events, a woman who claimed her persistent headaches were caused by a COVID-19 vaccination has been left empty-handed in court. The lady had been grappling with headaches since May 12, 2021, following the vaccination, yet she failed to secure compensation.

The court made it clear that it only considers complications directly linked to vaccination, meaning symptoms beyond the usual range. Unfortunately for the plaintiff, she wasn't able to provide evidence supporting her claim.

Headaches, as it turns out, are surprisingly common after vaccines, typically emerging within 48 hours. However, if they linger for an extended period, it's tough to pinpoint them definitively to the vaccination.

Notably, the court pointed to "alternative causes" in this case. The plaintiff, a long-term user of Methylphenidat for ADHD, might have developed the headaches due to the medication's potential side effects. Additionally, her history indicates similar symptoms in 2014, which she recently described. The verdict was delivered in early June.

When it comes to the law, vaccination side effects must be severe to attract compensation, and the plaintiff fell short in this regard. It's important to remember that compensation programs are selective, particularly for symptoms like headaches, and they often deny claims when there isn't sufficient evidence of a direct link to the vaccination.
