Instead of suing the manufacturers, people injured by vaccines can file a claim against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the VICP \u2014 also known as the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/vaccine-court-autism-deba_b_169673\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vaccine court<\/a>\u201d \u2014 which adjudicates the claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The VICP was meant to insulate vaccine makers from lawsuits that could bankrupt them while ensuring injury victims had a straightforward, non-adversarial and fair path to compensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iowacapitaldispatch.com\/2025\/03\/05\/bill-would-require-manufacturers-to-waive-immunity-for-vaccine-distribution-in-iowa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Supporters say<\/a>\u00a0the program ensures access to vaccines for the broader public while compensating injury victims.

Wyeth, she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The case began as a Pennsylvania lawsuit brought by the parents of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2010\/10\/13\/business\/13bizcourt.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0Hannah Bruesewitz<\/a>, who suffered seizures and developmental issues after taking the DPT vaccine in 1992. The vaccine court didn\u2019t compensate Hannah\u2019s parents, so they sued the vaccine manufacturer, Wyeth (now Pfizer) in state court in Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In its<a href=\"https:\/\/supreme.justia.com\/cases\/federal\/us\/562\/223\/#tab-opinion-1963423\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0majority ruling<\/a>\u00a0in favor of Wyeth, the court interpreted the 1986 Act to shield Big Pharma with full immunity from liability for vaccine injuries by ruling that people could no longer sue vaccine makers for injuries caused by design defects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a scathing<a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/supct\/html\/09-152.ZD.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0dissenting opinion<\/a>, Justice Sonia Sotomayer, joined by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, accused the court of imposing its own\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender_category\/policy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">policy<\/a>\u00a0preferences, misconstruing the Act, and disturbing \u201cthe careful balance Congress struck between compensating vaccine-injured children and stabilizing the childhood vaccine market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sotomayer noted that as Bruesewitz was argued, there were 5,000 petitions in the vaccine court alleging a causal link between some\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender_category\/vaccines-2\/\">vaccines<\/a>\u00a0and autism spectrum disorder and that Wyeth\/Pfizer argued that if the court did not find in its favor, it \u201ccould unleash a \u2018crushing wave\u2019 of tort litigation that would bankrupt vaccine manufacturers and deplete vaccine supply.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sotomayer wrote:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis concern underlies many of the policy arguments in respondent\u2019s brief and appears to underlie the majority and concurring opinions in this case. Manufacturers, given the lack of robust competition in the vaccine market, will often have little or no incentive to improve the designs of vaccines that are already generating significant profit margins.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mack Rosenberg said the decision, \u201cwas devastating to those who were injured or killed, and their families.\u00a0 Post-Bruesewitz, parties have very limited judicial remedies against the manufacturers, including manufacturing defect, failure to warn, and fraud-based claims, all of which are challenging claims for a plaintiff to bring.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She said if the Iowa bill were enacted, she expects it would be subject to challenges due to its conflicts with Breusewitz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Mack Rosenberg added, \u201cThis bill is important from an educational perspective as well. At a minimum, this bill focuses attention on the extraordinary liability protection enjoyed by vaccine manufacturers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She added:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMore and more people are waking up to the reality of vaccine injury, particularly as a result of COVID-19 vaccine injuries. People also need to know that vaccine manufacturers have no incentive to make safer vaccines due to the liability shield.\u201d<\/p>\n\n            \n        <\/div>\r\n<br>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Iowa House of Representatives subcommittee advanced a bill to bar the sale and administration of vaccines in the state unless manufacturers waive some of the liability protection granted under federal law for injuries caused by their vaccines.
