That's interesting to know!

I still think it seems shady though...I mean, cars have the propensity to cause huge damages but the manufacturers are not allowed some special loophole law like this. Or maybe they are? I really wouldn't put anything past our lawmakers these days.

And I do realize that there is benefit in herd immunity, but it seems like vaccine makers should be held to the same standards as everyone else. Or possibly even higher standards considering they can literally be a matter of life or death.

I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing if a company that makes a contaminated vaccine and then passes it along is put out of business due to damages.

I didn't mean to infer it isn't shady. I agree with you -- it's worse than shady. One part of shady is how in bed with BigPharma the government is, at many diffferent levels, especially FDA.

I have been researching Hep B vaccine for just under a year now because I had the Hep B vaccine and suffered serious adverse reactions (you can read more about that here http://forums.phoenixrising.me/index.php?threads/please-help-me-out-with-this.48711/). From my research, there is no casual link that can be PROVED or DISPROVED between Hep B vaccine and disorders. If you induced a neurological or autoimmune disorders as a result of Hep B vaccine, then in Court you are most likely to WIN the claim, however if you induced a Rheumatic disorder as a result of Hep B vaccine, then in Court you are most likely to LOSE the claim. That's what I noticed from the case reports that I was able to find online (they were all American case reports though, I couldn't find any from the UK.)

"The VICP has reviewed 627 Hepatitis B vaccine lawsuits — 577 for injury, and 50 for death. As of June 1, 2012, they have awarded compensation in 210 cases and dismissed 353 cases."

"The VICP has reviewed a total of 48 Hepatitis A vaccine lawsuits, of which 46 were injury claims and 2 were claims for death. As of June 1, 2012, the VICP has compensated 12 cases and dismissed 14 cases."

As you can see there are more legal cases for Hep B vaccine then there is for Hep A vaccine.

Here are two citations that shows manifestations of Hep B vaccine:
Chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia following immunization with the hepatitis B vaccine: another angle of the 'autoimmune (auto-inflammatory) syndrome induced by adjuvants' (ASIA).

I wasn't aware of the woman's case (1st link).

However, the award you mention (2nd link) is for: 04-1593V which is the male's case.
The first link is indeed of a woman's case which she won. Here is the archived working links to her case report

@charles shepherd would be interested in this.

The second link is of a man's case. Here is the archived working links to the article
http://web.archive.org/web/20160425...-been-ruled-to-cause-chronic-fatigue-syndrome

He ended up losing the claim, is that what the below means? I have given the link to it as well

"The Court of Federal Claims erred by vacating the special master's findings under Althen factor 2. Because these findings demonstrate that petitioners have not met their burden under this factor, the final judgment of the Court of Federal Claims in favor of petitioners is reversed."
