The United States has for the first time paid people who were injured by COVID-19 vaccines.
Three people received compensation for their injuries through the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP), run by an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, officials said in a new update.
One person who suffered severe allergic shock received $2,019, according to the agency, the Health Resources and Services Administration. One person who suffered heart inflammation, or myocarditis, received $1,582. Another who suffered myocarditis received $1,032.
The manufacturer of the vaccines was not made public. Information about the people who received the payments has also not been made public.
The payouts mark the first time the U.S. government has paid people who were injured by the COVID-19 vaccines, which can cause serious problems as well as death and were first introduced in late 2020.
Under the CICP, people who survive their vaccine-induced injury can receive money for unreimbursed medical expenses and lost employment income.
The newly granted compensation appears to only be for medical expenses, Wayne Rohde, author of The Vaccine Court, told The Epoch Times.
“These amounts are so low that you can credibly assume that this was just only for unreimbursed medical expenses, and that’s it,” Rohde said. “It’s unconscionable what they’re doing, but that’s this program.”
Most previous payments were for people injured by an H1N1 vaccine, including for Guillain-Barre syndrome. Some received hundreds or thousands of dollars. Eight received at least $106,723. The highest payment on record is $2.2 million.
The Health Resources and Services Administration, which runs the program, did not respond to requests for comment.

Now come some real reparations
But.. but.. the science!
The drug companies get off free and the taxpayers have to pay?
Injured for life and all you get is a measly one time $1500 payment.
My tagline: It’s science and therefore cannot be questioned!
Something like that, yes. Once the settlements reach into the millions, those who wished to force the drug on us will scream about tax dollars being used to compensate those injured. To NOT complain would suggest that they, as a taxpayer, were wrong about what they did.
But if you died, you're out of luck.
Big deal.
A lousy $1,500+ to someone who had heart damage?
That’s chickenfeed to an airline pilot whose career was ruined by the jab.
What is the value of a year (or years) of your life?
Pharmaceutical company immunity was part and parcel of the deal and is ongoing, despite the "emergency" having officially ended.
Per the FDA: "Importantly, the ending of the [Public Health Emergency] declared by HHS . . . will not impact FDA’s ability to authorize . . . vaccines for emergency use. Existing emergency use authorizations (EUAs) for products will remain in effect . . . ."
FAQs: What happens to EUAs when a public health emergency ends?

I wonder if the payment comes with some sort of agreement: If you take the money you give up any future claims. Given how vile this whole thing has been, I wouldn’t be surprised.
Yeah, ridiculous
I’ve been psychologically scarred by being told I’m a bad bad white supremacist for not complying. Where’s my check? /s
[[What is the value of a year (or years) of your life?]]
My life? Minimum wage for sure.
They probably did. I go hit head on by a car that turned intO my lath (luckily she was stOpped, waiting to get into her driveway- so the crash wasnt as violent as it might have been otherwise). Totalled my car- the insurance of the other person got me tO sign something similar to that- which I didn’t care, i just needed o get back home and get another junker to drive. THe insurance company just wanted to make sure I wouldn’t later claim injuries. Even though I smashed the steering wheel pretty hard, I had no injuries- so I signed. If I had retained a lwyer- they probably would scream at me for doing so, but I didnt care, and didnt need a lawyer.
Something tells me health insurance companies are now about to recover a whole Lotta expenses. Life insurers too. If they do not,they are not following their fiduciary responsibilities to shareholders. I would file a class action suit as a stockholder if they do not attempt to recover losses.
Wouldn’t take those shots for 100$ million tax free (or any amount of money for that matter)
The only people who should get anything are those who can prove they were coerced to take them
The pharmaceutical companies won’t be paying anything for vaccine injuries, they have immunity. All the payouts will be by the taxpayers after people go through the vaccine court. I think the cases are sealed?
Don’t be surprised if you start hearing more in the news about payouts and injuries in 2024 if Trump gets the nomination.
