    Maybe the Australian Governments should take a leaf out of the Korean and Norwegian books on how they handle adverse vaccine reactions

    South Korea to compensate nurse paralyzed after AstraZeneca vaccine


    A nursing assistant who was paralyzed after receiving a shot of AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine will receive compensation from the South Korean state after she was recognized as a victim of an industrial accident.
    The health worker, whose name was not disclosed, had been inoculated against Covid-19 on March 12. She later suffered from double vision and paralysis – and was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease known as acute encephalomyelitis, the state-run Korea Workers’ Compensation & Welfare Service said in a statement on Friday.
    After examining the case, the agency ruled that there was a “reasonable causal link between the side effects and the vaccination.” It also pointed out that the nurse didn’t have any underlying health problems that could complicate her condition.

    Norway to pay compensation for AstraZeneca side effects as patients who suffered from Pfizer & Moderna watch and wait

    2 Jul, 2021 11:50

    At least three claims over serious side effects of Oxford-made vaccine AstraZeneca have been upheld in Norway, resulting in financial compensation. Dozens more are expecting a ruling in connection with coronavirus-jab reactions.
    The Norwegian System of Patient Injury Compensation (NPE) will make payments to three applicants badly affected by the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine, it announced on Friday. It officially confirmed that the vaccine, currently suspended in the European country, has resulted in severe cases of blood clots and low platelet counts in these patients, one of whom died.

    Among those who suffered badly from the shot – later removed from the national vaccination program due to serious side-effects – are health workers who were prioritized to be vaccinated. The two women were hospitalized in March and one of them, who was in her 40s, died. Another applicant, an unnamed man in his 30s, is still suffering from severe immune reactions.
