Almost 14,000 People in Britain Are Seeking Compensation, Saying Covid Vaccines Left Them Disabled

by Toby Young
17 August 2024 5:00 PM

Nearly 14,000 people in Britain have applied for payments from the Government for alleged harm caused by Covid vaccines, new figures show. The Telegraph has more.

Freedom of Information requests made by the Telegraph show that payments have already been awarded for conditions including stroke, heart attack, dangerous blood clots, inflammation of the spinal cord, excessive swelling of the vaccinated limb and facial paralysis.

Around 97% of claims awarded relate to the AstraZeneca jab, with just a handful of payments made for damage from Pfizer or Moderna.

Since the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme (VDPS) was founded in 1979 it has had around 16,000 applications, but the Covid jab has made up the vast majority of claims.

Seb Sanders, the British champion flat race jockey, has been fighting on behalf of his wife, Leona, who was left hospital-bound after three Covid jabs, but their claim was rejected.

Mrs. Sanders, 52, who suffered from the rare autoimmune disorder granulomatosis – which causes inflammation of the blood vessels – was told the jab would not interfere with her condition and, if anything, would be ineffective, because of her impaired immune system.

She had her first AstraZeneca jab in February 2021, followed by a booster in April.

“It was only a day or two after that she collapsed in the bathroom, her left leg had given way, but we weren’t blaming the injection because nobody had warned us, so we never put two and two together,” said Mr Sanders, who is now a pundit for Sky Sports Racing.

However Mrs Sanders’ condition rapidly deteriorated after a third vaccine – this time Pfizer – in December, when paralysis started to move upwards from her feet.

She was admitted to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge, where a scan revealed transverse myelitis, a swelling on the spinal cord, which is a known side-effect of the vaccine.

The condition left her unable to walk for seven months and in spite of a brief remission in the summer of 2022, her condition has continued to deteriorate, exacerbated by picking up Covid and developing sepsis while in hospital.

“The collapses all came just days after she had the vaccine,” said Mr. Sanders. “But the medical assessor rejected the claim.

“The medical notes said she had a history of back pain and multiple falls, but Leona never complained about back pain or had falls before the jab. She was very active, always with the horses. She never sat down.

“It’s flawed me. I don’t like being made to feel like I am a liar.”

Worth reading in full.

What struck me about the article was the height at which the bar has been set in order for a claim to even be heard, let alone successful. Claimants are being alarmingly gaslit and fobbed off with the flimsiest contraindication that it wasn’t the jab what done it. A scandal in the making.

You have to prove 60% disability caused by the jabs. That’s very difficult to do if you already have some pre-existing conditions and even harder if you don’t have someone healthy and competent to fight your corner.

I checked out the Government’s Compensation Scheme as soon as I found out that Big Pharma would not be held liable for any injuries and it was one of the factors that led me to decline joining in the mass medical experiment.

It was obvious that a maximum of £120,000 wouldn’t pay for more than a few years care if you were completely disabled, and it would be very difficult to prove that the jabs had caused it.

They will never admit liability because the scale of potential claims could be astronomical. And of course there is the deeper question – if people were injured by the vax then were they not injured by the bioweapon?. I would wager that hundreds of millions of people have been injured by the injection and that millions more are injured who didn’t take the stab. And it hasn’t even got properly started yet. No government could ever address these wrongs. Just look at the successful clams for disability benefits in the UK over the last three years. And these are seriously disabled people with corroboration from the medical profession. The situation is going to get much much worse and so there will be no remedy or justice.

Denis Rancourt world wide study, 17 million dead from the poisons, 13 million from the fascist lockdowns. In the UK that means 150 K dead, some 2 million injured.

They will rob you of your health and your vitality and leave you with nothing save your eyes to cry with. They’ve already done it. Don’t expect to get some sort of compensatory cushion or your mouth stuffed with gold. It costs about £5 million to look after a severely disabled person throughout their life.You will get no help. You will be derided as a whingeing nutcase. They will turn your life upside down to make an extra few quid on a vaccine. Never mind that your child is barely human. This way of thinking has no self-imposed limits.

Clearly the Telegraph is still very much in the pay of BioNTech and Moderna.

Farage has a five year Marathon: he can’t be in the headlines every day.

And, hopefully, he’s working behind the scenes doing what many have suggested: setting up a local party structure, preparing for next year’s local elections, and information gathering and analysis.

He knows that ‘Timing is Everything’.

It’s something that a friend of his told him.

You are well and truly screwed if you believe in liberty. Your next door neighbour wants vaccine passports and compulsory vaccination and it won’t be long now. We talk like we have dodged a bullet noting could be further from the truth. Your neighbour wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire and that is putting it mildly.

Most of mine are either oblivious to the dangers, or appear frightened into inaction.

And a few even argue that the BBC agendas are true.

I wonder if this why Sunak cut and ran so unexpectedly when it was obvious that economic circumstances were slightly improving and the Treacherous Tories might have done a bit better if he’d held on until the autumn?

He’d already dropped the “effective” bollocks when standing at the Dispatch Box; perhaps he knew he was on very thin ice with the “safe” propaganda.

Picking up Covid? Yeah right! Presumably took the spurious nonsense “test” that “confirmed” she had some kind of respiratory infection. A cold maybe or some kind of ILI? Just goes to show we’re still not out of the woods with the scam.

My comment from the Daily Telegraph article about vaccine injury:
The tip of the iceberg has been revealed. 
The Yellow Card reporting system indicates over 360,000 serious CV injuries and deaths. Typically this is under reported by a factor of 10.
The DT could get some sort of redemption by calling for compensation from the Big Pharma companies, not from the taxpayers. Vaccine indemnity is null and void if trial data has been withheld and or fraudulent. There is a mountain of evidence that Pfizer knew that the mRNA injections ( they were not vaccines) were not safe or effective.
Recommended reading for S Knapton: “The Courage to face Covid 19” by John Leake and Peter McCullough, MD.
Let’s stop pretending that it was only AZ jabs that caused harm.
The crime against humanity that has been perpetrated and gruesomely suppressed by our Governments, the Medical fraternity and our Mainstream Media must be dragged out into the open. When the public understands the implications of the scale of the harm done to them, their families and children and friends, the MSM and Government credibility will be ripped to shreds.
Every cloud has a silver lining. The people will wake up to the other outrageous scam, the Climate Crisis and Net Zero policies destroying our livelihoods and economy.
Only the Reform Party has the clarity of vision and integrity to stop this abuse of our citizens.
