Strange that the court paid out “$2,569,336,538.59 for compensable claims and $104,202,681.85 for attorneys’ fees representing those claims” from FY 1989 to FY 2013, if it is so hard to win a claim in that court

That’s really not much. That averages 758,578.00 per person.
Especially, since you can bet most of those kids are dead, or permanently damaged for the rest of their lives.

Plus, you left out the main part of the article that proved my point.

“There were 3,387 compensable claims, meaning those claims that received compensation or money, and 9,651 claims that were dismissed.”

That tells me that only about 1/3 got any compensation.

That doesn’t even count the countless number of kids that were harmed, but never even made it to court because there wasn’t enough proof or a doctor to back them up.

I fail to see how 1/3 of the people who filed claims getting compensation equates to “nearly impossible” to get compensation from that court.
