Claims from 35 alleged victims have been filed against AstraZeneca, accusing its Covid vaccine of causing rare complications leading to deaths and serious harm. The Telegraph has the details.
Lawyers have issued the claims amounting to tens of millions of pounds in the High Court over complications they say were caused by the vaccine, months after launching two test cases.
The cases highlight what is claimed to be a very rare side effect that has been linked to the deaths of at least 81 people and caused serious harm to hundreds more.
The claims allege the vaccine, developed by AstraZeneca in partnership with the University of Oxford, is “defective”.
The vaccine has been linked to a newly identified condition that causes blood clots called Vaccine-Induced Immune Thrombocytopenia and Thrombosis (VITT). In about one-in-five cases, patients who contracted VITT died.
The Telegraph understands that up to 40 more claims are expected to be lodged. The total compensation bill, should AstraZeneca lose, amounts to about £80 million, making it one of the most expensive vaccine litigation cases ever.
The Government has underwritten any legal action brought against AstraZeneca as part of its deal in rolling out the COVID-19 vaccine programme, which received regulatory approval at the end of December 2021. Manufacturers of the other Covid vaccines have also received Government indemnification.

If the case is found against Astra Zeneca it’ll be the tip of the iceberg, and 80 million won’t begin to touch the sides.
“80 million won’t begin to touch the sides.”
… of taxpayers money.

Indeed.
Corks will be heard popping like gun fire at legal firms.
You’re right.
It might get very interesting indeed when big ( FTSE 100) Life Insurance compamies join the party
The jabs will cost them billions in brought forward death/crtical illness cover payments. Their actuaries are not asleep.
Pfizer/Moderna up next. ..
Throwing AZ under the bus may just be the start.
It’s been known for decades that mRNA ie Gene therapies are, well, a bit dodgy to say the least.
So the British people lose out both ways. (1) Being used as guineapigs and (2) having to pay compensation to those injured while Big Pharma and government ministers get off scot free! British Justice at its finest! / sarc
Since we are paying for this we should also be able to stop all the experimental jabs until such time as the Courts decide or at least issue a written warning to each new jabbee that they will not be covered for any liability should they fall ill or die.
This must also have a life/health/pension insurance consequence where ‘full disclosure’ is written into their contracts.
Will Dame Elisabeth Whatshername give back her damehood? What about her barbie doll and her standing ovation at Wimbledon?
Five ways: (1) We paid for the ‘vaccines’ (2) We were unpaid guinea pigs (3) We paid for the compensation (4) We will have paid for the ‘Global South’ (5) We pay for the WHO to tell us to shut down our societies and their economies.
Bill Gates is a accessory (perhaps instigator) to all this and he is a Billionaire with deep pockets.
As Chris Morrisson posted earlier this morning, a substantial majority of the wealthy elites believe that choking off dissent is a price worth paying….
That was about upper middle class types. If this poll is representative, a majority of them believe exactly everything they’re being told. If you’re only making $150,000 per year, people like Billy the Gates will probably feel strongly inclined to ask you if you’re really sure that you don’t want some spare change.
There’s are still some missing: We also paid for vaccination campaign. And for the terror propaganda and coercion measures supposed to ‘convince’ people to get vaccinated.
And following on (9) the insane furlough scheme.(10) the unnecessary PPE
And loads of positive-pressure ventilators aka lung demolition machines.
With the study by Denis G. Rancourt, Marine Baudin, Joseph Hickey, and Jérémie Mercier that up to 17 million died from the Covid jabs, hopefully more people will use the courts for compensation so that there is full disclosure on the dangers.
Don’t hold your breath.

It never took 4 years:

although I suspect they knew it wouldn’t take anywhere near that long but needed a distant-future narrative to justify indemnity to governments, media and potential recipients.
“But we’re happy for the populace to take the risk of the vaccine showing side effects, in two years or four, because… well, it won’t affect our profits.”
This has got ‘government backed’ written all over it. Whatever the result and I expect AstraZeneca to lose, Bozo and chums will be cleared of any wrongdoing which is absolutely lurvley for them. A few non-entity grifters at AstraZeneca will be pilloried but nothing more. The poor saps who took the injections will be vindicated and receive some cash and the bloody taxpayers will be even poorer.
It’s as if all the stops are being pulled out to bankrupt the country. Oh no…surely not.

“To produce a maximum of chaos in the culture of the enemy is our first most important step. Our fruits are grown in chaos, distrust, economic depression and scientific turmoil. At least a weary populace can seek peace only in our offered Communist State, at last only Communism can resolve the problems of the masses.”

Gramsci, 1915: “Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity…in the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches, and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.”
“The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants, and it provides the further advantage of giving the servants of tyranny a good conscience.” Albert Camus
Can’t say we haven’t been warned but our leaders decided it wasn’t a threat or were completely dead to it and allowed universities to become indoctrination centres despite the pleas of many concerned citizens over the years. Over the past couple of decades they have endeavoured to demonise those concerned as far-right haters in need of silencing now that goal is gathering pace.
Oh what a mess we are in.
And Bill and the team are all exited about vaccines that will be put in the food, so all anyone has to do is eat. Hopefully he’ll put it in the artificial meat but my guess is he, or some Blofeld type character will try and get it in all foods and all foods meaning a set of approved foods with all other types being illegal.
If anyone came out with a conspiracy type idea like this 4 years ago I would have considered them deluded, and now…
That such a psycho is the second biggest donor to the WHO – currently making headway with its major global power grab thanks to the craven stupidity/cowardice/wickedness of world leaders – is beyond a joke.
It is no wonder that the government is dragging its heels over the Covid enquiry since they will be picking up any bills.
“they will be picking up any bills.”
No – the taxpayers always pick up the bills.
”which received regulatory approval at the end of December 2021.” No it didn’t. It received Emergency Use Only approval with no marketing approval or marketing approval number. It’s not the same thing. Stop spreading lies.
80 million, that peanuts its like 80 quid to them, it should be 80 billion or the equivalent of the sales value of the covid products they sold, the company should then be brokwn up and its board of Directors and CEO jailed.
Seconded
Yes,but if the government gave Astra immunity against litigation then it is we the tax payer who will pay. Isn’t it the PM and his government ministers who are to blame for the madness of the vax programme. The buck stops with them. They should be hauled up to face justice.
Unfortunately companies have been shielded from responsibility – remember those heavily redacted contracts that were unreadable? It is us mugs that have to pay.
I’m glad the claims behind the AZ jab are being tested in court. Conspiracy theory doesn’t work as a legal defence, so actual evidence, of which there is plenty, will need to be considered.
However I’m also concerned there’s an element of misdirection to all of this. It’s a rather convenient distraction to focus attention away from the ‘wonderfully successful’ (plus incredibly harmful and insanely profitable) mRNA muck.
Especially as Gates was bragging about the development of jabs for everything coming very soon!
As a U.K. tax payer, I don’t want my tax money to be used to prop up AZ.
